Hello,

Does anyone have any tips on formatting HTML content in Dynamic Text Boxes?

I have two specific issues:

1. embedding images is OK if you want to display an odd picture scattered amongst a few paragraphs of text, but if you want to display say three pictures in a row there does not appear to be a clean way of doing so. The pictures just render themselves one on top of another. You can ‘force’ line breaks, but then the formatting just looks pants and irregular. Am I missing anything?

2. Using a \<a\> tag you can link content to another page, but is it possible to direct the link to a fresh browser instance as you can in normal HTML using the \_blank attribute?

I may be asking too much of what appears to be relatively recently intorduced functionality in to Flash.

Thanks for any suggestions.
