Seems this problem is quite the same as I described recently in my "Textfield optimizes itself in a weird way" thread in August. It was about Flash eating out the space between <B> or <I> etc tags...
I've ended up considering it as a bug and created my own "optimization" (based on split().join() ) . Also, in my case a guy named "m-e-" wrote that this bug appears only if you publish SWF from Flash MX 2004. He said that if you publish in Flash 8 and then play in Flash Player v8.0.22 or later, the bug won't appear... However, I didn't tested all this, as I prefer to create a work-around in such a case :-). -- Best regards, GregoryN ================================ http://GOusable.com Flash components development.
