Scrolling multiple text fields

[bobbyr]

I'm using CS3 (ActionScript 2.0). I have a movie that is using external XML to create dynamic text fields. Everything is working great except now the page gets larger than the storyboard and it will not scroll. How should I go about getting the following code to scroll?

// blah blah blah cut out

ap_xml.onLoad = function(sucess) {
if (sucess) {
parseFile(ap_xml);
showArray();
}
};

var numOfColumns:Number = 2;
function showArray(){
for (i=0;i<ap.length;i++) {
pod_x = (i % numOfColumns) * (290 + 10);
if (pod_x == 0) pod_x = 15;
pod_y = Math.floor(i / numOfColumns) * (200 + 10);
if (pod_y == 0) pod_y = 15;
this.createTextField("backdrop"+i, i, pod_x, pod_y, 450, 160);
this["backdrop"+i].background = true;
this["backdrop"+i].backgroundColor = 0xFFCC00;
this["backdrop"+i].border = true;
this["backdrop"+i]._width = 270;
this["backdrop"+i].html = true;
this["backdrop"+i].wordWrap = true;
this["backdrop"+i].multiline = true;
this["backdrop"+i].styleSheet = styles;
txt_title = ap.filetitle;
txt_desc = ap.filedesc;
txt_button = ap.filebutton;
txt_url = ap.fileurl;
myText = "<p class='filetitle'>" + txt_title + "</p>";
myText += "<p class='filedesc'>" + txt_desc + "</p>" ;
myText += "<p class='filebutton'><a href='" + txt_url + "'><img src='button.gif'></a></p>" ;
this["backdrop"+i].htmlText = myText;

}
}

Thanks in advance! Bobby

Attach your .fla (in a zip package along with your .xml and in a Flash 8 format, not a CS3 one), to your next post.
