I quickly made a standalone example which shows that the preferred way
does not work (text can be copied):
package prototypes {
import flash.display.Sprite;
import fl.controls.TextArea;
public class TestTextArea extends Sprite {
public var details_ta:TextArea;
public function TestTextArea() {
super();
details_ta.editable=false;
details_ta.textField.selectable=false;
//
showSample();
}
private function showSample() {
var msg:String = "<b>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,</b> consectetuer
adipiscing elit.";
details_ta.htmlText = msg;
}
}
}
I put above code in an actionscript file (TestTextArea.as) which is
the Document file of a Flash FLA-file. On the stage is a TextArea
component instance from the Component panel, and the instance has the
name details_ta. No additional formatting of changes to attributes of
component is done.
Test movie, and copy the text from the textarea :(
Sorry for the extended code of previous mail. It was easier to come up
with above sample than I thought.

Joel, Ian,
I agree with you, because I thought I was doing it "by the book" (=AS3
Reference).
Thanks, you are willing to look at the code. Code is included however
it is extracted from the source files and not a working standalone
example. [...]
