Author Dynamic Text Field, Special Characters ??

I have an external .txt file that I have being shown in a Dynamic text field,
however the plus symbols that I want displated as text fail to show... is there
some reason that flash is not showing these?

Further, is there a way to display complex HTML in flash, the dynamic text
fields seem limited in what tags they can achieve... is it possivble for
instance to show tables?

1. Flash sees the "+" as a space. So, when you type something in a text file
like this: I+am+so+cool it will be display as: I am so cool. So in other
words... you are going to have to find another way to do it.

2. There is no way to achieve an iframe like behaviour in Flash. Like you
said, it is limited to certain tags.
