i have a problem. I create a object in flash looped from a xml. Everything works fine … except one thing. The linebreaks wont work. I have tried everything. CDATA-tags, no CDATA-tags, \<br\>,  
, htmltextfields, default textfields. Anybody familiar with this problem? Tips?

XML:  
\<items\>  
\<item type=“1”\>\<![CDATA[line 1\<br\>line 2\<br\>line 3]]\>\</item\>  
\<item type=“2”\>\<![CDATA[ line 1  
line 2\<br\>line 3 ]]\>\</item\>  
\<item type=“3”\>\<![CDATA[line 1\<br\>line 2\<br\>line 3]]\>\</item\>  
\</items\>
