Welcome to the wonderful world of Director text. You can work around these
problems via the following sequence:
myTextMember.useHyperLinkStyles = 0
myTextMember.useHyperLinkStyles = 1
This will usually get Director to recognize the links and update the cursor
accordingly. Occasionally, it will even get Director to send a
hyperLinkClicked event when you click on the link. If you are trapping this
event then
myTextMember.media = myTextMember.media
is more reliable, but I have found that, on the Mac, this will eventually
lead to Director ignoring
myTextMember.html = strhtml
Thus I have abandoned the hyperLinkClicked event and instead trap the
mouseUp and use pointInHyperlink(the clickLoc).
Hey, but look on the bright side. Now we have 3D text! Wheeeeeeeeee!
