Image link in textfield - I'm going cCcrazy with this one

Hi fellow Kirupians please take a look at this and tell me if I’m going crazy :h: or is this just wierd??

I have a textfield with a img tag inside a anchor ( <a href> ) tag and it works just fine, I click on the image and it opens another page, now, when I try to embed the font I’m using, the link won’t work :h:… it’s like the flash player asumes that I wan’t to select the text insted of assuming the anchor tag…

This happens with flash player 8.0.22 and the flash 8 IDE in both IE and Firefox and on two isolated machines, on the project I’m working on, and on an isolated fla…

I attached an swf and a fla for you to check it out… the top textfield has the font embeded and doesn’t work, the bottom textfiel hasn’t and it work fine…

Just so everyone knows heres the only line of code in the fla:
ActionScript Code:
[FONT=Courier New][LEFT][COLOR=#0066CC]this[/COLOR].[COLOR=#006600]my_txt[/COLOR].[COLOR=#0066CC]htmlText[/COLOR] = [COLOR=#0066CC]this[/COLOR].[COLOR=#006600]myne_txt[/COLOR].[COLOR=#0066CC]htmlText[/COLOR]=[COLOR=#FF0000]“hello World<a href=‘http://www.google.com’ target=’_blank’><img src=‘clip_mc’><[COLOR=#000099]\a[/COLOR]>”[/COLOR];
