inserting help text into an html window

BlitzPlus Forums/BlitzPlus Programming/inserting help text into an html window

Dear coders,

I have written a game that needs an explanation.
I have created an html window to display it.
I was expecting to use SetGadgetText to inject the html text into the html window gadget.
I cannot get it to display anything.

I hope it's not mandatory to access an outside file?

Can anyone instruct me?

Thank you, coders :-)

Easiest way is to save the text to disk and load that into your htmlview.

Yes, Beaker I can see that.
It's obvious and I might have to do it. It is a messy solution, though.
I really wanted to have one emerge straight from the game and I have this feeling it should be possible.

Ah well, maybe somebody can suggest a way to do it?
