News Scroller 2

OK.
Can you recommend another nice fonts instead?

And do I have to change the code accordingly?

I have it working.
Indeed the code MUST match the embedded font.
To me it looks a little double, i mean: and embedding, and in code??

Sorry I was going to get back to this. The scroller works great in safari but not in firefox for some reason. I was testing it out in firefox after i first installed it and that is why I thought it did not work. Dont know why it does not work in firefox. As far as the resize issues...I do not know why people are having problems with that. Worked great for me : )

Hello, I am trying to enter the scroller in my site using DWCS3 but no luck. No sure what I am doing wrong. I am sort of new to DW so if you can lead me in the right direction I would greatly appreciate it.

Hi

This is a great news scroller. I've adapted it to work as a vertical scroller and load off my XML file which is all working fine. Except it won't apply any of the html formatting. I use CDATA tags in the XML file. When I trace the output of the XML file it is fine

 
  
   This is the text 

content for the news item

Some more text in another tag.]]>
  
 
 
  
  
 

BTW I have remembered to use the .htmlText tag instead of .text and still no change. I have also tried adding HTML formatting tags directly to the main.as file (where it applies the text to the "field" TextField and it is ignoring b br and img tags, although it responds to font size changes.

I have loaded this XML data into another app I was playing with and it displayed fine (with the IMG tag etc)... Not sure what I could be doing wrong here.. Any ideas?!

PS I'm new to CS3 and AS 3 so I'm a bit shaky, although I'm loving the new power you get!

Hi chrispy,
let me see the XML please.

Great file! I was wondering, however, how can I change the size of the text and where it's positioned? It seems to stay centered no matter where I move the text box in the flash file. Any suggestions would be great. Thank you!

Wondering if anyone can help. I was just opening the scroller and it worked with I first unzipped it but when I opened Flash CS3 to changed the BG it stopped working. I started from scratch and noticed that even when I don't make any changes to it, open in Flash, then run test movie, it won't work. But it works when I didn't first go into it. How do I change the BG with out it giving me these output errors?

This is what I got?
ArgumentError: Error #2015: Invalid BitmapData.

I also looked at a previous issue that is similiar to mine but as far as changing the Main.as and embedding the fonts. I am not sure what to do...I looked at the text box and clicked embed but the box already had those fonts select and "don't embed" was on the button below?? Not Sure?? Any suggestions??
