dynamic text w/ html, how do i make links do popups?

[ChaseNYC]

I have dynamic textbox's that load html text with links; however when you click the links they open in the same window not in a new blank window. I need to have this changed. Thanks a lot for this help.

is it not possible?

Adding target="_blank" to your link tag does not work?

[ChaseNYC]

nah, i am referring to when you have the html loaded in i.e.

loadVariables("lighter.htm", this);

the text isn't already typed in it loads the text from some other file so it needs to be in the <a href> code or maybe there is some setting within flash... but this is different than that.

Your link in the HTML should be like this:

<a href="http://www.flashkit.com" target="_blank">FlashKit Link</a>

Along the same lines, how do you get HTML coded text to load into a dynamic text box and not just show code?

i am confused if your asking the question or being rhetorical, if you want an answer i'll be happy to PM you with it.
