My answer was so very off subject ;) sorry.
The only way I can replicate that problem is if the textfield is single line
instead of double - otherwise your first code works fine for me.

If you do:

htmlText = "<p>Line 1</p><p>Line 2</p><p>Line 3</p>";

The TextField will render like this:

Line 1Line 2Line 3

And the actual htmlText would be:

<P ALIGN="LEFT"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="12" COLOR="#000000"
LETTERSPACING="0" KERNING="0">Line 1Line 2Line 3</FONT></P>

There are no paragraph tags.

But if you do:

htmlText = "<p>Line 1</p>\n<p>Line 2</p>\n<p>Line 3</p>";

The TextField will render like this:

Line 1
Line 2
Line 3

And the actual htmlText would be:

<P ALIGN="LEFT"><FONT FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="12" COLOR="#000000"
LETTERSPACING="0" KERNING="0">Line 1</FONT></P><P ALIGN="LEFT"><FONT
FACE="Times New Roman" SIZE="12" COLOR="#000000" LETTERSPACING="0"
KERNING="0">Line 2</FONT></P><P ALIGN="LEFT"><FONT FACE="Times New
Roman" SIZE="12" COLOR="#000000" LETTERSPACING="0" KERNING="0">Line
3</FONT></P>

I'm not sure why, but this is the way it is. May be someone on the list
can answer the reason behind this.
