I'm posting this here trying to get somewhere. I've been bumping this
issue all week over at apollocoders with no response, and time to show
off the proof of concept is rapidly running out.

I'm using the Flex3 mx.controls.HTML component to load in a HTML doc
(using  "location" to it's URL). It's full of named anchors for
internal navigation.

I don't think the "scrollV" scroll position of the internal
HTMLcomponent is being updated properly. whenever the named anchor is
manually used to navigate to a different section of the doc, the
slightest touch of the controls scrollbars (of the outer HTML control)
or trackpad touch or mouse click sends the HTML back to before scrolling. 

How is does the scrolling work in this component? how does the
component know that the document has scrolled and how can I get the
damn thing to stay still?


I'm basically trying to get this component to act like an IFRAME. For
the (finished) Flex version of this app I've been using the
third-party HTMLComponent.swc. And this is what I'm needing from the
AIR Flex control.

the other thing I need this component to do is to navigate to a
particular section of the document via it's named anchor being bound
to other data. I can't seem to get it to work like the Flex version. 

here's the Flex version

<ns1:HTML elementType="iframe" source="{bookmark}"  id="myframe2"
width="100%" height="100%" />

and (in case you're curious) the AIR version:

<mx:HTML id="html2"  location="{bookmark}" />

the big question is: can this Flex control actually do all this?

any advice?
thanx
