When I import a block of text with a link in it (and render as htmlText in flash)… does flash limit the size of the URL?

It seems to be doing that on a file of mine. I load in the txt file, with for example this in it:

\<a href=“[http://www.testingareallylongurlllllllllllllllllll](http://www.testingareallylongurlllllllllllllllllll) + 100 other characters”\>

It cuts it off way before the end of it (there are no special characters involved).

Cheers!
