Hi everyone,
Basically, my problem has been mentioned in this forum lots, but the solutions don’t seem to be working for me.
What I have is an XML file being pulled into flash and placed in an array, then the data is put into a dynamic text box. The XML contains some HTML formatting I want to include (<B> and <I> tags).
The problem is when the HTML comes in, the dynamic text box displays it like <b>bolded text</b> rather than actually bolding it.
I have used CDATA in my XML,
<topic title="Science"><![CDATA[- Austrian monk <b>Gregor</b> Mendel begins his studies of variation.]]></topic>
as well as trying to use character codes (&x#60; etc (the x is there so it doesnt parse)), and a combination of both, but neither seem to work.
When I set the html property to false for my textbox, i get the “<” and “>” symbols coming in as the html codes of < and >. I think this may be the problem, as the htmlText is displaying <b> rather than <b>.
The input to the textbox is set with the .htmlText property as well.
Any help would be appreciated!
