Hello there,

I’ve got a litle problem with the rich text formating element. In the Flash MX help -\> Using Text -\> rich text formating it is said, that Flash MX is’t just able to read the basic html-tags like B, I, U, A, P a.s.o.  
it is even possible to use the html-attributes LEFTMARGIN, RIGHTMARGIN, ALIGN, INDENT und LEADING.

I succeeded in using ALIGN, but I don’t get the INDENT-attribute working. Does someone know how it works?  
I have several paragraphs and every second one should be indented by about 20 px.

Thanks a lot and bye
