This is driving me nuts. I really thought I knew how to do this. Apparently, I don’t.
I have blog entries that being written into an xml file, which is then being loaded into flash. Same xml chunk:
ActionScript Code:
[FONT=Courier New][LEFT]<entry>

For some reason, the ‘description’ text field is not showing the paragraph tags as actual paragraph breaks, it’s just showing the tags themself.
I’ve set the text field with all the properties I thought were necessary in order to get it to work. Clearly, I’m missing something:
ActionScript Code:
[FONT=Courier New][LEFT]blogholder.[COLOR=#000080]description[/COLOR].[COLOR=#0000ff]autoSize[/COLOR] = [COLOR=#ff0000]"left"[/COLOR];
blogholder.[COLOR=#000080]description[/COLOR].[COLOR=#0000ff]wordWrap[/COLOR] = [COLOR=#000000]**true**[/COLOR];
blogholder.[COLOR=#000080]description[/COLOR].[COLOR=#0000ff]html[/COLOR] = [COLOR=#000000]**true**[/COLOR];
[/LEFT]
[/FONT]
Note that ‘description’ is the instance name of the textfield.
Help me?
Ugh. Nevermind. I had it as
blogholder.description.text = bloglist.childNodes[p].childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
instead of
blogholder.description.htmlText = bloglist.childNodes[p].childNodes[1].firstChild.nodeValue;
Why do I spend like an hour trying to figure something out, only to have it occur to me like 1min after I post a thread?
