Re: FLASH:special character in variable text fields

[Calin]

Hello, Paul.


I downloaded your .sit and from what I can tell, your variables are still

not URL-encoded and you did not check the option "Include all font outlines"

in the '.fla'. You checked the "include only specified font outlines" and

also checked all the checkboxes below: uppercase, etc. You need to write:

'pi%f9' instead of pi� in the text file! I took a look at your text file and

it reads 'pi�'. Now the special character may be displayed as a rectangle

due to codepage & platform incompatibility, but I am certain that you did

not URL-encode the variables file or I would see the % sign followed by a

hexa-code instead of the rectangle. Now go stand in the corner! ;)
