I have made this converter and it stops working when the user presses enter, as the new line corrupts the data. So i thought, i'll just remove the new lines every time the user presses enter.

What I am trying to do is take a string of numbers and convert it into an array, while cutting out the non-digits.

var reg:RegExp = new RegExp("

myString = textLoader.data;dataSet1 = myString.split(reg);

I am rendering a TextField (Flash CS5) with the following css and html properties :
css = "a {font-weight: bold;} fu {color: #00A0A0;}"
wordWrap = true
multiline = true
html = <![CDATA["Phoenicians were pioneering artisans and ingenious craftsmen...
They developed the technique behind the production of transparent glass...
Their innovation spread around the globe throughout the past centuries...
<fu>WE AIM TO CARRY ON WITH THE INNOVATION</fu>"]]>
The last QUOTE is rendered in a line BELOW "WE AIM TO...". It's rendered like this :
WE AIM TO CARRY ON WITH THE INNOVATION
The ONLY way to render the quote in the same line with "WE AIM..." is to :
a) Either put it INSIDE <fu>
b) Or remove <fu> altogether.
Is this a Flash bug? Am I doing something wrong with css or html?

What I want to create is a lightbulb, with a pull-string next to it. When you pull the string, the lightbulb turns on, and when you let go, the string bounces up and swings around, causing the lightbulb to swing slightly as well.I tried to do this with prefabbed animations, but it just doesn't look right. I know i have to code it so a movie clip of a single dot spawns several instances of itself, and I can do that... but then I get lost.
