<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml";> <mx:Script> <![CDATA[ public function callRO():void{ ti.htmlText="<u>"+ti.text+"</u>"; } public function callROT():void{ ti.htmlText=ti.text; } ]]> </mx:Script> <mx:Label id="ti" text="Some Text" rollOver="callRO()" rollOut="callROT()" /> </mx:Application> So this is interesting, You could enhance this snippet to put a <u> tag around any link like public function rollOverLinks():void{ ti.htmlText=parseAndUnderline(someHTMLText); } public function rollOutLinks():void{ ti.htmlText= someHTMLText; } private function parseAndUnderline:String(textToParse:String) { // do parsing, find hyperlinks and underline them here } If You encapsulate this in a custom component, You just would bind Your text to the component and it would work like a standard Text component and behave as expected. Nevertheless I would like to have a RichHTMLText component which supports CSS 2.0. -karsten --- In [email protected], "Darren Houle" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > 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.
