RE: FN-FORUM Flash smilies in text box

you need a font creation program. Once like Fontographer from Macromedia.
Whatever font you are using in your project (lets say Arial for arguments
sake) needs to be amended to include your smilies. Theses are made when you
create your modified version of Arial font and are mapped to a particular
key.

Thanks for the feedback guys and gals but may I expand on what I need -to be
clearer..

What I need is a set of font characters that have the basic alphabet but
also has those smilies that are on wingdings as well. In addition....
So for example I need A-Z : ; ( ) & % $ £ " ! ? / , . -AND THEN
'smilies' ( say when you hit the chevrons < and > for happy and frown)
I have actionscript code that goes thru a string and replaces one character
with another say ':)' is replaced with '*' for now..

I feel as if I have dug the channel tunnel from France and also from England
but the two ends that need to join are a mile apart.
:((
