1) append HTML text to textArea text1 I can load text like:

But I have no idea how to appen new text !
2) add an image to textArea All this in the the new TLF :
I have created a textArea element but cannot display my HTML content. If I just display regular text it works or if I change the textArea element to a RichEditableText element it works fine. Since this is for a mobile app I would prefer to use the textArea element as recommended by Adobe.Here is the MXML code for the textArea. All I get is the border and no content displayed.
<s:TextArea id="myHelp" editable="false" width="100%" height="100%">
<s:textFlow>
<s:TextFlow>[code]..........
I would like create a text area with code highlighting in flex. Is there an advanced textArea witch suports css for real. For example:
myHtmltext:String = '<span class="keyword"> #include </span>';
myTextArea:TextArea = new TextArea();
myTextArea.htmlText = myHtmltext;
I'm playing around with a messaging type of application. Does anyone know how, or of any tutorials on to "appending" html text to text areas in flex and flex mobile projects? And specifically how I could take that and basically "append" a sprite inline to the text when i need to? Something simple like:Username: some text right here!So, Anyone have any experience "appending" sprites or simple text formatting?how to solve these issues!EDIT:Based on an answer below it was sugguested that it's as simple as...textAreaInstance.htmlText += "<b>Username:</b> some text right here!";But its not. you can't do .htmltext with a text area. you can on a text field, so i tried
var TF:TextField = new TextField();
TF.width = 200;
TF.height = 200;

Is there a spark TextArea decleration in actionscript3 file since private var ta:TextArea is a mx component?
View 1 Repliesif you feed the textarea text attribute with an tag that has a valid src url, then for some reason flex will try to render everything as html.Eg, try this:<mx:TextArea id="textArea" width="100%" height="90%" text="<img src='http://url-to-a-valid-img"/> and instead of it rendering it as raw text it will render it as an html.
View 2 RepliesThe Below code is running well...

Then htmlText doesn't support Spark Textarea. Hence produces error. How does one go about displaying HTML formatted text with spark Text Area Property.
I've been experimenting with MXML- and spark-textarea (and richtexteditor)when I copied some formatted texts like Test tes1 from MS Word 2007 and paste them inside the flash textarea , the formattings are gone (I only receive the plain texts)But when I do the same to the Jwysiwyg (a jquery wysiwyg text editor), the formatting doesn't disppear.Is there a way to make flash textareas receive formatted texts without destroying the formattings?

I'm using AS2 in Flash CS3.I have a TextArea component in the stage that's loading its text from an XML and I've been able to use the ul and li tags to create lists. However, when I try to include a nested list it just inserts a line break between the nested list and the main list rather than indent it further. Is there a solution for this issue?Failing that, how would I be able to add non-breaking spaces into the XML so they will render inside the TextArea component? I've tried and without success. I scoured the net for some help with this and found some information about modifying the font embedding xml file with a new entry for the non-breaking space and that didn't work either, so that leaves me somewhat stumped.

I have a piece of Flash on an HTML page that when you hover over it, it expands out to reveal more information.There are text links that it expands over, however in everything but IE, when it's not expanded those links are still covered by the Flash making them unclickable.I have the Flash piece in a separate DIV wmode set to transparent.

Is there an easy way to get access to this text in my .swf?
View 2 RepliesTrying to add some html to a TextArea in Mobile Flex 4.5 but keep getting the error:
"1180: Call to a possibly undefined method StyleableTextField."
For the following line:
StyleableTextField(txtMyText.textDisplay).htmlText = "sample <b>text</b>";
I have a swf that I have created that make a few HTML posts. When I run and compile the swf locally, it successfully makes posts to my php code hosted on my domain. However when I then upload my swf to my domain, and then alter the embed tag to have a fully qualified path to my hosted swf, the swf will load correctly but it will make any HTML posts to my PHP scripts. The reason that I have an an embed tag with the fully qualified url in it, is that my goal here is to be able to place the html embed code on a number of different sites.
I have it working on a single remote site, and it has a wild card crossdomain.xml file in it. However when I try to apply a crossdomain.xml to any of the hosted sites, or to my computer locally nothing runs when the I use the embed with the fully qualified URL, if I just the locally hosted swf on my computer the HTML post work just fine. I feel this is related to the crossdomain.xml file, however I guess I'm not understanding some aspect of the security model.
I have a scenario that I get an string with html data, this is not just html data it's an email (outlook) saved as an html file and dropped in the string.Now this string needs to be formatted to an html document and should be a clickable link in a datagrid. So when I click on the link, the HTML document should pop-up and should gave me a nice HTML page that is readable for the normal users. I hope it's a bit clear what I want o_0. don't know where to start.
View 3 RepliesI'm looking to simply append the following text to an existing spark.components.TextArea's text flow:
<b>something</b>: hello world
I have attempted to do this using the following code, but nothing happens:
this.textarea.textFlow.addChild(TextConverter.importToFlow(
"<b>something</b>: hello world",
TextConverter.TEXT_FIELD_HTML_FORMAT));
How can I accomplish this? I know in the old mx.controls.TextArea component, I could simply do:
this.textarea.htmlText += "<b>something</b>: hello world";
How can I do this with the new TLF/FTE API expressed in the spark.components.TextArea component?
hopefully this is possible:
-1 large html (home.html) file houses 2 html files (aaa.html and bbb.html)
-aaa.html consists of 1 swf button
-bbb.html is empty
question: is it possible to click on the button in aaa.html and have the action occur in bbb.html? (for example, clicking the button in aaa.html will load a swf in bbb.html)
I have an <mx:HTML/> component in my flex air app that shows a web page. The problem is, if the web page has a link on it and they click it, it does not take them to that page. Is there a way to allow this, or a work around? is there a way for the loaded webpage to send Flex info about events that occur in it?Here is my code:
<mx:HTML
id="html"
width="100%"

I have HTML + CSS text. I need some lib with simple function like "Render String Var conteining HTML" So no external files (like in flash lib called HTMLwraper you just have to play your SWF on top of HTML). dinamic! I give it string it renders It into some conteiner (not as a bitmab but as if it was real HTML dynamically rendered in flash). (And I need real HTML + CSS support not what normal rich text block gives us)I am going to use it in with Flex (Flash Builder) so I like MXML component model but even pure flash AS3 will workout.It should be Free and Opensource (any license like GPL, LGPL etc will be ok).So Is out there such flashflex library for HTML + CSS dynamic rendering (rfom given String or XML)?

Everything works fine BUT 2 things: First, font colors tags don't work. If ever I use sth like <font color='0xadadad'>...</font> it won't work. However, if I use <u>...</u>, it works fine
Second, the <a href='...'>...</a> does not work either. I checked in several websites, and the solution would be to set the selectable property of the text to true.
Is it possible to display an html <table> as a table inside an dynamic textarea using .htmlText method ?

I can't find anything in the Flex documentation.
I can't seem to find anything in Adobe's documentation about accessing the HTML of a web page through the HTML component in AIR.
I've looked into "domWindow", but that seems to only return Javascript.
Is there a property I can access that has the whole of the HTML in string format or do I need to use URLLoader or something like that?

Code:
getURL ("http://www.google.com, "_blank")
