hello all,

i made a site with a dynamic text box, the contents of which are in a .txt file outside the movie. it worked ok with:
loadVariables(" "");

but then i put the movie into a frame page in the web and now it doesn't work any more. any suggestions?
 
First I created a dynamic text field. So instead of typing text into the field, I specify the
variable text that loads into the field at runtime.

In the Property inspector of the text field I typed newsField as the variable name.

The .txt file is called news.txt and contains the text 'newsfield=bla bla bla'

The first frame in my movie has the action:
loadVariables(" "")

As I said, this worked fine when there was just one page which was the movie (called index) but when I put this movie into a frame it no longer loads the text into the text field :/
