Italics are easy, just with a <i></i> tags if you set your textfield to
accept HTML and enclose the text in the XML with CDATA tags.

Trademark in HTML is usually &trade; or &#8482- don't know if there is a
spec for service mark yet.  But I don't think Flash's HTML DOM supports
those symbols unfortunately.  I have heard of people inserting graphics,
but that's a pain, and not sure if it's the best/only approach.   Maybe
someone else knows.
