text=Loading Text %26 Populating a Component
Homework assignment #3

In this assignment, you will need to copy the entire text of this email into a text file and save it to a folder on your hard drive.  Then create a Flash movie that will have a text area component and two buttons. One button will say Clear Text and the other, Load Text.  The load text button loads text from the text file you created into the text area component when you click it.  The clear text button will clear the text from the component resetting it to %3D its original value (of having no text).

Here is some more generic text for filler - Curabitur luctus sapien quis velit. Praesent rhoncus est in libero. Mauris ultrices. Curabitur commodo, nunc ut adipiscing luctus, metus velit sollicitudin metus, eu tincidunt arcu metus at metus. Nullam accumsan mauris in metus. Duis euismod, magna vitae fringilla facilisis, velit tellus gravida dolor, rhoncus dictum turpis elit eu velit. Vivamus a justo. Nulla facilisi. Morbi commodo, dolor ac ornare consequat, nisl purus congue ipsum, et convallis dui urna eu justo. Curabitur imperdiet. Duis dolor elit, bibendum in, tristique non, condimentum vitae, tellus. Sed aliquam nunc sed nunc. Quisque sodales iaculis lacus.

(note: this link does not have to be active in the text area component; it can be simple text)
