HTML support in TextField is known to have issues. I wouldn' t do anything unexpected like having an <li> without enclosing <ul> or <ol>.

Traced all the way to mx.core.UITextField with no conclusions. Probably need to trace further up the class heirarchy tree but flash.text.TextField isn't available. Experimented some more. Found out that: 1. Cannot work around the problem by first clearing htmlText (i.e., "htmlText = null"). 2. Only the text is changed after the switch. (i.e., comparing htmlText before and after the switch shows that the same tags and attributes are wrapped around the text). Perhaps someone from the Flex team here can help? :P --- In [email protected] <mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com> , "Stephen Roy J.
