Hi Alex, I just tested this. I removed the mx from source and added both mx.swc and sparkskins.mx. Now I was able to add mx:RichTextEditor into my project. It shows on the mobile device too. Unfortunately the issue with the text area showing HTML but not in "edit" mode stays the same. I don't see how a spark textinput could be used by the app here. In RichTextEditor.mxml clearly a mx:TextArea is used. Thanks for your suggestions but it seems this can not be done. I am unable to edit HTML/TextFlow on mobile using Flex :-(
I might pursue the idea of using a webview with a HTML input field which opens another webview in popup that show the HTML editor. And then passing the results via JS to the Flex app. I think this is the only way it can be done.
