Re: FLASH: Reading Text files

Same as in a browser.

Create a new Flash movie with 2 text fields named text1 and text2. Now

place a button and give it the following action:


On(Press)

    Load Variables("test.txt",0)

End On


Publish the movie (in this case as an exe). In the same directory that

you published the movie create a file named test.txt with the following

content : text1=John&text2=Flash+Central


Now open the page in your browser. The text fields will be empty or

includes any default text that you had typed in the text fields. Click

on the button and you will see the text from the text file is

transferred into Flash.
