I'd like to show a block of text on a mouse click, but the add with wizard function for this doesn't seem to work. I'm guessing that's because I need to specify that it's hidden first, then comes the reveal on mouse click, then the hide on mouse click. I'm sure this is ultra simple. I'm brand new (clearly). Thanks!

right click your text and click convert to symbol > movieclip and assign it an instance name.

There's no movie involved. I just want to click on something or press a button or symbol next to it, and show text. Javascript is preferable, in the HTML file. I need to use this on Squarespace, so I only get an add code box. Thanks.

you need to convert your text to an object so it can be referenced with code.
