Flash problem.....

Well, I have a problem in Flash MX 2004...

I'm loading text and css from external files to a TextArea, and it works great!

I only have one problem, the TextArea's background is white, and I really didn't want that, I didn't see any place to change it.

Is there a way to change the background color, and if there isn't, is there any ohter way I can load the text and css???
I am a bit new to flash, so I might be missing something.

hey, wap32,

customizing components in 2004, is such a huge pain I can't believe it..
Anyway, to just change the background color, use:

PHP:

<?php
my_ta.backgroundColor=0x0000ff;
?>

just change the 0000ff to the hex color you want.

If you want to get rid of the background all together, (took a bit of hacking to figure this one out - couldn't find any documentation), use:

PHP:

<?php
my_ta.border_mc._alpha = 0;
?>

hope that helps..
