"Too difficult"???? Having a feed that has UI embedded in it, is 'less than optimum'. Ideally the data you'd be receiving would be in a UI aqgnostic format. That said, I think you'll have to get your string parsing skills up to snuff. You have, within Flash/Flex, a RegEx implementation that should help you do that.
It seems a pretty large tangent to move to AIR just to solve this problem. I'd say its time to roll up your sleeves and learn string parsing.

I found AIR <mx:HTML> window but have to evaluate distributing app as AIR. Do you have comment / other suggestion?
