Hi there,
What would be helpful is to know what the behaviour you expect
_is_, and what you see when it's broken.
I would be very surprised if there is a difference on Vista for this
sort of functionality, particularly a difference between Flash Player
standalone and in a browser. I suspect something else must be going on
on that machine. (Adblocking? Wrong version of the Flash Player?)
Testing it on Vista: in the IDE, in Chrome, in Firefox 3, in IE 7
and in Safari I get a line of text in a textfield - when I click on
any word it goes bold. With a very quick look at your code, that seems
to be correct.
HTH,
Ian
