Re: [flexcoders] mdash in line of text?

Thanks Gordon.

I've tried both in a text area -- and it's not showing up --- I've  
tried with embedded fonts as well as Helvetica, Verdana, etc --  
they're not showing up -- can you tell me how I'm doing this wrong:

<mx:Text width="710"  top="20" styleName="infoText" selectable="false"  
fontSize="28">
                                <mx:text>

by creating mutual value among them.
                                </mx:text>
                        </mx:Text>

In Unicode the em-dash is &#8212; or &#x2014.

Hey - does anyone have any suggestions for getting an em-dash to  
appear in flex? It's in the font -- but it's not showing.


I've tried &#151;, &mdash; -- to no avail.
