Ah, but you misunderstand. Your NetDynamics project is the package from
which you are attempting to access the method
spider.visual.CSpDisplayField.getHtmlValueText. Thus, you cannot use that
method!

I don't see why you couldn't just use getHtmlText instead. Sure, it's "less
information". You could always take the "roll your own approach" where you
create a static text field and add the logic to create the full HTML.
