XML text links

[nate51]

I have code for an automatic scroll content and the XML looks like this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <events>
<photo scroller="Scrolling content Scrolling content Scrolling content Scrolling content Scrolling content" />
</events>

Does anyone have an idea how to drop a link in for a specific part of the text?

I tried something like this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <events>
<photo scroller="Scrolling <a href="http://www.site.com" target="_blank">content</a> Scrolling content" />
</events>

And that made my content in the flash site 'undefined' so I am drawing blanks here. Any help would be great.

<photo scroller="Scrolling <a href=\"http://www.site.com\" target=\"_blank\">content</a> Scrolling content" />
</events>


thats only part of it but make sense?

Yeah, the extra quotes and brackets confuses the XML parser. If you want to include the link directly in the XML node value, use <![CDATA[]]> (http://www.w3schools.com/XML/xml_cdata.asp). For this to work though, your text field should be set up to parse HTML and you should pass the value via the TextField.htmlText property.
