RenderHTML/XML code does not function

I seem to be having a problem taking text from an XML document, that has HTML markup, and properly displaying it in a Flash text box.

Here is a sample of the XML/HTML code:

<address><![CDATA[123 Fake Street<br> Anywhere, ON A1B 2C3<br> Tel: 519-833-9827]]></address>

I’m assigning it to the String Variable like this:

addressInfo = exhibitorList_xml.firstChild.childNodes[exhibitorNumber].childNodes[0].firstChild.nodeValue;

But when I display it in the addressInfo text box, I still get the Raw HTML. I have made sure that the “Render text as HTML” is selected. Do I need additional AS to make this work?
