Hello, been looking for some hours now after how i can make a field scrollable, haven't found anything yet :(

If the info is necessary; inside the field I want to create a list from a database via asp, the list will include in each line:
Name, add button, and a quantity

(btw if you also know how to add those with a loop that would be great as well, if not, I guess I’ll Google more ;) so far I was thinking about using two split(), one for splitting with the first delimiter and a second for the second delimiter.. the variable from the asp will be looking like: "nameA:5;nameB:1;.." if you get the idea)

thats how i want it, if you excludes the price part thats exact how i want it, just that its not a shopping cart :wink:

but aren't there any samples around the web for that? been searching in google for a while, also tried to search withing adobe.com for their macromedia toturials, found this but the problem is that the toturial files are missing :(

have you looked into using the List Component (http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flash/8/main/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Parts&file=00003703.html)?
CTRL + F7 > User Interface > List

Thanks:)

seems like the ScrollPane is for including another .swf file, so if it works that simple i guess the problem is solved
