Yes, you can use XSL, but it is external to Flex. I created a custom TextArea component for displaying help text. It has a URL parameter that loads the text. The URL can be for a file that contains the text and html tags. Or it can be to a servlet which transforms the help xml using a xsl stylesheet and returns the final help text in a consistent format. /Paul
