why do you need the textFormat if youre using html? you can do all the
formating with html.
i got curious about that. your textformat will not take effect cause
youre setting the textfields htmlText, not its text. seems like format
and html are no good friends...different things
copy that in the first frame of a new flash, create
1 TextField: TF
1 button: BTN_html
1 button: BTN_form
code:
var form:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
form.bold = true;
form.font = "Arial";
form.color = 0xFF9900;
form.size = 15;
//
//
function setTextFormat() {
var str:String =
random_arr[Math.ceil(Math.random()*random_arr.length-1)];
TF.autoSize = "left";
TF.html = false;
// BEFORE SET NEW TEXT
TF.setNewTextFormat(form);
// text, NOT htmlText
TF.text = "TextFormat: "+str;
}
//
function setTextHTML() {
var str:String =
random_arr[Math.ceil(Math.random()*random_arr.length-1)];
TF.html = true;
TF.autoSize = true;
var html_str = "<font face='arial' size='15' color='#FF9900'><b>HTML:
"+str+"</b></font>";
// include a html link
// ---> html_str += "<br><font face='arial' size='15'
color='#FF2299'><u>"+"<a href='http://www.adobe.com'>links are
cool</a>"+"</u></font>";
TF.htmlText = html_str;
}
//
var random_arr:Array = ["Heyho Friend!", "Howz the things?", "Thanks
im fine, too :-) "];
this.BTN_form.onRelease = setTextFormat;
this.BTN_html.onRelease = setTextHTML;

That's exactly what I have done:
if(this.Model.pages[i].text.indexOf("<font") != 0)
{
this.Model.pages[i].text = '<font face="Arial">' +
this.Model.pages[i].text + '</font>';
}
but the setNEwTextFormat funtion is not working the way it should do. That
would be a more elegant solution that the above.
