You can also do something like... <a href="http://mysite.com/index.cfm"><b><u>#name#</u></b></a>
It's really basic, but it works fine and the user gets the point. According to the docs... all that happens by default with links is that the mouse turns to a hand, there's no hover, underline, etc. to let you know it's a link. But you can use other tags to make it look like a link. My undertanding is that the Flash Player supports the following tags (and *only* the following tags) when embedding HTML in textareas, the htmlText property, etc: <a> <b> <br> <font> <img> <i> <li> <p> <textformat> <u> Darren >From: "swhitley02" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Reply-To: [email protected] >To: [email protected] >Subject: [flexcoders] Dumb Newbie Question - Underlined Hyperlinks >Date: Wed, 07 Jun 2006 21:34:40 -0000 > >Hello everyone.
