& sign in flash html.

[FlagstaffRoy]

I am trying to use '&' sign in an html text in a dynamic text object under flash 8. Flash 8 stops the text before '&' sign and does not display the rest. How do I insert it?
Thanks
Roy

When you want to put an & in HTML you need to code it as & because an & indicates the start of an entity code (the ; indicates the end of the code)

& is the entity code to display an &

Felgall I tried it did not work. Surrounded it with '' , still did not work.
It is a dynamic text field. Does it make a difference?

textfield.html = true;
textfield.text = "hi & bye!";
