1. subclass mx.core.UITextField.
2. override function set htmlText(value:String) or override whatever other
you are using to set the text
3. read the string coming into above function.  If it's in an html tag, just
call super.html.  Otherwise do what you want.

  Hello all,

I posted a note earlier about using Mathematical Equations in Flex /
Flash. I know that mx.core.UITextFormat (which inherits from
flash.text.TextFormat) controls how text in a text field is displayed.

Does anyone know how I would create a new class to manage a text field
so that the tags which are normally parsed (<b><i>, etc...) are parsed
normally. but if it is wrapped in a <mathml> tag, it would be parsed
by another class?

I hope this makes sense. Basically, I am trying to implement a system
for displaying MathML information within a Flex app.

Thanks in advance.
