Re: FLASH: BUG: scroll method in Dynamic Text, with HTML option

[Helen Triolo]

Aydin,


Have you tried this again with the new player that came out on Dec 4 to

see if the problem has been fixed?  Just wondering if this is some new

undocumented bug or whether it's the reset-scroll-to-1 problem that is

now fixed.


Regards,

Helen
