Loading html into a dynamic text area from a text file. Trying to create internal html ‘anchors’. like this:  
a name="#top" etc so that you can link around inside the text (to go to different ‘sections’ of a ‘Services’ page, for example)

According to Flash, the only attributes accepted for the ‘A’ tag are ‘href’ (required) and ‘target’.

Anyone have any ideas on how to achieve html anchors?

Thanks a million!
