Hi there, I am using an external XML file to define the content for a Text component in Flex. The xml file has HTML tags (e.g. <b> for bold).
When I assign the XML to the Text component's htmlText property, I get unwanted extra line breaks around the HTML tags. For example, here is the external XML file: <text> This is the text with <b>html</b> tags </text> Then in actionscript I load the XML file and create the Text component // create the XML file loader var xmlLoader = new URLLoader(); xmlLoader.load(new URLRequest(externalFilename)); // create an XML object from the file contents var myxml:XML = new XML(xmlLoader.data); // make the Text component var mytext:Text = new Text(); mytext.htmlText = myxml; The displayed text component has three lines of text because of unwanted line breaks around the HTML <b> tag: "This is the text with *html* tags" Instead of just one line of text as I was hoping for: "This is the text with *html* tags" Is there a way around this (perhaps a way to specify a set of tags (e.g. <b>) that should not be interpreted as XML sub-nodes of <text>? Thanks in advance
