If the text is on a solid color background, try using that color
background for the text field too. This might be the simplest fix.
Otherwise you'll want to create a symbol with a rectangle you can use
as a hit area (and make invisible). You can create your text field in
the symbol dynamically if you want to, or just include it in the symbol
at authoring time and apply properties with ActionScript at runtime.
Or you can dynamically draw a rectangle for the hit area.
I use option #2 all the time and it is simple and effective.
Hope that helps,
Kirk

I am creating dynamic text sprites in a movieClip using
createTextField()
for a bread crumb navigation feature to be used in a Director movie.
Problem
is I just want plain text, no background on the text sprites but when
you
try and click on the text and click between letters flash does not
pick up
the click!
Is there a simple way to turn off the transparency of these text
members
so
that the clicks do not leak through the gaps?
