First of all, make sure you're xml file is saved as UTF-8. It says so at the top of the file (encoding="utf-8"), but it isn't, which confuses the browser and therefor throws an error (in IE) or will display odd characters (in Firefox) when trying to view it directly: http://www.heliospb.net/_2pestudio/xml/artigos.xml
Here's the exact same file, saved with UTF-8 encoding http://muzakdeezign.com/2pestudio/artigos.xml This will ensure it displays properly on all systems and allows you to view/debug the xml in a browser. As for the bold text problem when assigning a new htmlText value, try setting the textfield.htmlText and textfield.text properties to an empty string before assigning the actual value. _txt.text = _txt.htmlText = ""; _txt.htmlText = "<your_xml_string">; I think that's how I solved it in the past.. Then there's a few more problems.. In IE 6, I can't see the top right text (on the grey background) --> http://muzakdeezign.com/2pestudio/ie.gif In Firefox, the first time I view the page, all fields display 'undefined'. When refreshing the browser, the text shows up. --> http://muzakdeezign.com/2pestudio/ff.gif This indicates that you're not properly loading the xml (trying to display it before it's loaded). regards, Muzak ----- Original Message ----- From: "Helios Pregioni Bayma" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com> Sent: Sunday, May 13, 2007 4:54 AM Subject: [Flashcoders] Flash hmtlText weird problem Hi, New problem that looks like Flash bug, but it can be my mistake. I have a dynamic html textField in Flash, that imports a text from XML, and is formatted by CSS. Lets say I have this text in XML (there are 2 texts in real XML): <i><![CDATA[<b>Title of the text</b><br><br>Text body<br><b>Author: <a href="http://www.someonesdomain.com" target="_blank">someone</a></b>]]></i> When I open the site in the browser, I can navigate in both texts (clicking in buttons to call each), and everything is perfect, with the title and author bold, and body not bold, normal text. So I try clicking in the authors link inside the text, what opens another browser window. But from this time on, if I change to the other text, both appears all bold. The title, the body, the link, everything. And it happens in both, I can change between them, and it happens all the time. You can try it live here (http://www.heliospb.net/_2pestudio/artigos.html), the links are in the bottom of both texts, and their links are "branding" and "comunicao dirigida". I looked for any wrong reference to the text, text style, nothing, the code only handles it when its loaded and stays in a _root var. Is it a bug of Flash or mine? Another question is, do you have a clue why the link is hard to work in Firefox while in IE just a click makes it open the other browser window?
