hi,

am wondering if there is a limit in the number of characters in dynamic text? I tried to load in .txt file as dynamic text but the text was truncated... if yes, how can i get around this problem?

Howdy...

I am assuming that you have figure out the last part...

You probably have some special characters such as & or = in the content of the text file that truncates the text... URLEscape them if you see those... ;)

Hello,

just realised that the length of the dynamic text takes on the height of its text box. since i fixed the dimension of text box, my text was truncated. managed to get around that by setting textfield._height = textfield.textheight. But am still stuck with masking problem...
