Not sure if this is the right section or not as it’s more of an xml question, but I’m trying to figure out a solution to break up an attribute tag to display in a text box.  
At the moment it just fills the available line space and then jumps to the next line. I’d like more control with the formatting.

As I have “ignore white space” in my actionscript manually adding an extra line doesn’t work and I believe you can’t use CDATA in an attribute tag.

Anyone know of a quick fix out there?

Otherwise I can turn the attribute into a node so I can use a CDATA tag and HTML formatting, but it will mean a lot of work altering the xml.

Cheers
