Hello All,
  I'm using the mx:Text to render some htmlText complete with some
embedded href links.  My goal is to use the htmlText with a link (via
an href in the text), catch the event for the link, but treat the rest
of the text as a button in the parent.  Also, it's important to keep
the mouse pointer as either a arrow or hand.  Any suggestions?

  When I set the properties on the mx:Text with this: 
     mouseChildren="false"
     buttonMode="true"
     useHandCursor="true"
    The events for the LINK aren't raised, and the entire text area is
a button.  But the mouse pointer is functioning properly

  However, with the following settings, I get the proper
functionality, but the cursor over the text is selectable (and must be
to make the Link event fire):
     mouseChildren="true" 
     buttonMode="false" 
     useHandCursor="true"

BTW, I've tried implementing the rolloever/rollout to change the
cursor, which it does.  But over the mx:Text it still shows the
selectable text.

Thanks,
