Found my own answer =) The answer is yes.
The Flash 9 player can dispatch EVENTS when a link in HTML text is clicked.
In my case, the htmlText contains something like this:
<a href="event:0000098604">John Doe</a>
And then in my actionscript I'm doing this..
var linkEvent = function(event:TextEvent):void {
mx.core.Application.application.launchDetailsWindow(event.text);
}
txtRelationships.addEventListener(TextEvent.LINK, linkEvent)
flash Player 8 had a "actionscript:" protocol which allowed you to call
a method, apparently... but they did away with that in AS3 and switched
to the event model.
