Nice and thanks. But how can i make a same kind of bubble for a Text in a paragraph.

For ex: In a text like “There is a man who lived in a jungle” if i keep my cursor over the word “man” it should show “He is little john” in a bubble.

can you please write a tutorial in similar subject.? and please do inform me

I have the exact same problem as JavaProzac did, above.

I created my Flash movie using AS3. Is this tutorial for AS2 only. Is this possibly a difference in AS2 and AS3 that is biting us? Is there a different syntax that we should be using in AS3?

Informed minds want to know… 8^)

Nice tutorial! Very detailed instruction.

Anyways, I like the utility of this and am trying to apply portions of it to a project I am working on. Instead of having dynamic text, my popup will be a different movie clip for each designated rollover. So to sum it up, each invisible button will have it own unique popup.

Is there a way to break the code up so that there isn’t a global call for the same speech bubble rollover? I have tried removing the talk strings and setting rollovers to individual button but something just isn’t working out.

Simple enough it seems…… but I got an error:

1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: Void.

An suggestions as to what caused it.
