[flexcoders] fading htmlText - doesn't fade with my other stuff in my VBox, why how to fix?

[{reduxdj}]

I don' know why this does this, but seems ol flash 8 was plagued by this 
issue.  I'm fading a VBox with htmlText, problem is that  my textfields 
don't fade too...  any ideas how to work around this one?


thanks,
Patrick
