AIR includes a very complete HTML+JavaScript engine (WebKit), but this engine is much too large to include as part of the ordinary Flash Player.
Flex 3 components such as <mx:TextArea> which have an htmlText property are based on the Player's flash.text.TextField class, which supports a small and nonstandard subset of HTML. See the htmlText property of TextField in the Language Reference for a list of what tags and attributes are support in htmlText markup. Adobe is developing a new Text Layout Framework (TLF) which works with the new Flash Text Engine (FTE) APIs in Player 10. (It will be used in Flex 4.) TLF will not support all of HTML, but it will be more capable than TextField's htmlText.
