Using on(release) to dynamic text
Hi -
I have a movie clip that acts like an Index (Table of Contents) of the site, where I am using a dynamic text area. I need to have the text area scrollable because the Index is a very long list. The challenge is that I need to link entries in the Index to SWFs in the overall application.
I know that html tags and getURL actions won't work.
If it was a button on the stage I would use something like -
on (release) {
navTo("Intro_1.swf");
}
and it would work great.
But the actionscript has to be attached to text in a scrolling text area...not a button.
How can I wrap text like this in Actionscript to make links to swfs??
TIA your help.
