Dynamic Text in Symbols

I have a movie symbol with text in it. I need this text to be dynamic so that I can feed it in when the flash header is loaded. The header is supposed to display the page title.

So the movie is called: "flash_movie.swa?title=whatever"

It works fine when the text is not a symbol, but as soon as its a symbol, it no longer works.

The symbol is movie type and contains only dynamic text.

Any suggestions?

A.

See what happens if you make the dynamic field's variable name global using /:varname. If that doesn't work, you have a problem due to the text not being embedded. Embed the text.
