Re: [Flashcoders] Textarea
Two suggestions: 1) It's a bit extreme but in the end I think it would work. Use the BitmapData Class to collect the image data, then use it to add additional transparent pixels to the left or right making the total width of the image the same width of your text field. You then must use something like the PNGEncoder class to save it as a PNG and save it to a server using AMFPHP. Make sure your .htmlText references this file directory and file name. Tthe transparent pixels should push the text below the image. Here is the link to the PNGEncoder class: http://www.5etdemi.com/blog/archives/2006/12/as3-png-encoder-faster-better/ 2) You could do all that but I would be more inclined to have the text field and picture be separate and have textfield's .y and .height properties adjust dynamically to the bitmap data of the dynamic image.

If both the text and the image need to scroll, put both of them in a MC that is itself scrollable and remove the scrolling from the nested text field.

RE: [Flashcoders] TextArea Component (Flash 8)
Have they increased the puny amount of HTML that is allowed in Flash? Nope, unfortunately. I've been down the exact same road - what I have learned is using the TextFormat object, while not perfect, will save you a lot of headaches. Searching through strings - what a pain, and a major performance issue I would think. Good thing about the TextFormat object is you can use asfunction for your hyperlinks, so you can have text link to an actionscript function, or to external URLs.

Re: [Flashcoders] TextArea and TextInput differences in creation, why?
Hi Robert, I only have TextArea in my Library and everything works. Maybe TextArea contains everything TextInput needs to exist. I just looked at the classes for both and they are quite different, I don't have time to drill down through all the dependencies and inheritance, but I imagine this is the reason. Sorry I should have looked before.

RE: [Flashcoders] TextArea BUG!! HELP = Can't Change Button's Label
The MC trick worked fine, but button's label can't be changed at all!
Take a look at this test code:
txtDescription.html = true;
var textHtml = ;
textHtml += test line..BR/;
textHtml += img src=\bt\ id=\button_mc\/br/;
textHtml += test line..BR/;
textHtml += img src=\ball\ id=\ball_mc\/;
txtDescription.text = textHtml;
txtDescription.doLater(this, setlabels);
tbt.label = Test Button;
//trace(tbt.label);
function setlabels()
{
_level0.txtDescription.label.button_mc.but.label = Test Button;
_level0.txtDescription.label.button_mc.but.invalidate();
trace(_level0.txtDescription.label.button_mc.but.label);
_level0.txtDescription.invalidate();
}
The STRAGE BUG here is that TRACE returns the new label value: Test
Button, but in TextArea my button stills w/ its default value: Button!
