The opportunity to win up to $7000 with “Word Play” Flash Game Contest ends in 20 days, and I already showed you how to embed a text file in Flash.

Now it’s time to make something useful out of it.

In this script, you will learn something about dynamic text fields styling, input text fields and arrays.

All in one.

First, and seen in How to embed a text file in Flash post, you need to embed the text file… this time I am using a comma separated file, like this:

aa,aah,aahed,aahing,...,zymurgy,zyzzyva,zyzzyvas

and I am embedding it in the same old way:

package　{
　import　flash.utils.ByteArray;
　//　assuming　that　words.txt　is　the　name　of　your　text　file
　//　and　it's　stored　in　the　same　directory　of　your　flash　file
　[Embed(source="words.txt",mimeType="application/octet-stream")]
　public　class　embedded_text　extends　ByteArray　{
　　public　function　embedded_text()　{
　　}
　}
}
