I'm having a bit of a problem both getting and setting htmlText in a
textfield in Flash. I've done this previously but can't figure out
what the problem is...

Let's start with what I need to do: I basically need a way for a user
to input text, add some basic html properties (size/bold, etc), then
read that htmlText, save it to xml using CDATA. Not a big deal.

The problem is that even in the most basic tests -- creating an
inputText, making sure it's html property is true, then doing
something as simple as

box.htmlText = "<b>What</b> is <i>WRONG</i> with this?!?";

That gives me:

is with this?!?

In the textfield, skipping the bold and italic bits. I've even made
sure that it had imported all of the font, and it was using Arial
anyway.

Has anyone done this or know of a simple word processor-like example in Flash?
