[flexcoders] Atom feeds

[willfould]

I have a simple Atom feed reader application using the grid control.  

When you click and item on the grid, a text area is populated with the
contents of one of the feed elements ("content")

It works great unless the content element contains HTML:


A sample content Atom element with HTML looks like this:


  <content type="xhtml">This is a link <a
href="http://www.example.com";>click here</a></content>

This results in [object Object] appearing in the TextArea.

Any ideas for what's wrong?




Here is relevent application code code:


        <mx:DataGrid id="titleList"
dataProvider="{atomUrl.lastResult.feed.entry}" width="100%" height="100%">
                <mx:columns>
                        <mx:DataGridColumn dataField="title" headerText="Title" 
/>
                        <mx:DataGridColumn dataField="id" headerText="ID" />
                </mx:columns>
        </mx:DataGrid>

        <mx:TextArea id="content" width="100%" height="100%"
htmlText="{titleList.selectedItem.content}">
        </mx:TextArea>
