Maybe this is what you need to do... You will have to have the <a> not
around the image, but you can use the same function to handle the <a> and
the <img> click.
txt.htmlText = "This is a movieClip inside of a text field <img
src='Symbol1' id='myMC'/> Isn't it sweet?";
txt.getImageReference("myMC").addEventListener (MouseEvent.ROLL_OVER,
onRollOver);
function onRollOver (e:MouseEvent):void {
trace("oh Ya");
}
