Hi Suzy,
I can't remember which blog I saw it on (one of the Adobe guys I think),
but I saw an example using an IFrame to load the HTML in. Then a custom
component in the Flex movie sent messages to Javascript so the IFrame
always appeared in the right place and the right size over the Flex page
- it worked really nicely and sound like just what you need - sorry I
can't be more help, but perhaps this'll jog the memory of someone who as
a memory!

Hello Group-
I have an app that receives XML data over the socket. Specifically,
it is data that is in 2 formats (plain text and HTML).
The HTML that gets sent represents the FULL html code (i.e. the
top-level 'html', 'meta', 'head', 'style', 'div', 'body' tags etc..).
Sometimes the tags have namespaces and even 'class' attributes
assigned to them which relate to styles defined w/i the style tag.
For this reason, I can't just set the XML value to the 'htmlText'
attribute of a text field.
I tried using the ExternalInterface API and pass the HTML (see example
below) to a javscript method which opens a new window and calls
'document.write(passedValueFromFlex)', but that does not work b/c of
the extra rows between tags. If I manually remove the white spaces
from each row where the HTML is one long String...it works fine.
Using a parser to handle that would be near impossible to create
though. Does anyone have any ideas for a solution (to display HTML)
Thanks.
