How can i display image in mx:TextArea Component?

I found display img tag in htmlText of mx:TextArea component
is very difficult in Flex Air
I new a simple air project in flex builder, put the code
below in it, i put a glad.png file in the src folder, every thing
is OK, when i run it, image cannot be displayed. why this happend,
I search the google for the solution, it seems there is a bug in
air, and told me to use mx:HTML coponent, but that component still
can not display img tag.
could any one help me with this?
<mx:TextArea width="100%" height="100%">
<mx:htmlText>
<![CDATA[
<a href='
http://www.adobe.com'><img
src='glad.png'/></a>Click the image to go to the Adobe
home page.
]]>
</mx:htmlText>
</mx:TextArea>

I ran into a similar problem and wasn't able to find a way to have regular Flex components (like Text and TextArea) display <img> tags in their htmlText. Everything works find in a web-based Flex application, but once the same code was used in AIR, the images just wouldn't display.
I changed my display to use the mx:HTML component and everything worked fine (I was using only external images).

TextArea component AS3

I'm having trouble both working out or finding out how to
apply an imported css file to the CS3 TextArea component. I've
frequently done this in AS2 using Flash 8, but that code no longer
works. If anyone knows could you please let me know. Here's the AS2
code I've used previously:
private function loadCss(){
var myStyle = new TextField.StyleSheet();
myStyle.load(this.CssPath+".css"); // the CssPath variable
here was supplied within an object passed through to the
constructor
textArea.styleSheet = myStyle;
loadXml();
}

Thank you Anirudh,
I have been using the TextArea component because it has code to handle scrollbars, and in Flash this component is a wrapper for a TextField object. As far as I can see this is not the case in Flex, and my AS3 code sets almost all of the TextField attributes, so I probably can't use Flex and the Flash Builder anyway. At least not without throwing all my code away.
Besides, the .swf file generated seems to be much bigger than in Flash.

ActionScript file using TextArea component

I have been developing applications in Flash CS5, but I coudn't stand the completely useless code editor any more, so I have installed the Flash Builder instead.
The problem I'm having now, is that I have an AS3 class that uses the TextArea component. But if I make an ActionScript project, I cannot import the TextArea class as FB doesn't seem to know about it. And I know nothing about Flex, so if I make a Flex project, I have no idea of how to combine my AS3 class with the TextArea component.
I am amazed - I thought that would be ridiculously simple, but I have been browsing Adobes sites for days now, and I'm not an inch closer to any solution.
Anyone knows something to help me?

How can I access the content of a textarea component?

I'm trying to use a javascript form editor in my jsf project.
The form editor writes to an html <textarea> component.
The jsp page looks like this:
<div style="height: 336px; left: 0px; top: 0px; position: absolute; width: 672px">
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
tinyMCE.init({
mode : "textareas",
theme : "advanced",
</script>
<textarea cols="50" name="content" rows="15">This is some content that will be editable with TinyMCE.</textarea>
</div>
The content of the <textarea> component is changed with the editor.
What I need to do is capture that content after it has been edited.
How can I do that??
Thanks

I have a similar problem. When I try to watch the rented movie a pop up says "Cannot Open: The content is not authorized" What exactly is the problem. I'm not in the US at the current moment. I'm in France. But that shouldn't be a problem right?

A few questions about using an XML file to add text into a TextArea component set as html

I'm using AS2 in Flash CS3.
I have a TextArea component in the stage that's loading its text from an XML and I've been able to use the ul and li tags to create lists. However, when I try to include a nested list it just inserts a line break between the nested list and the main list rather than indent it further. Is there a solution for this issue?
Failing that, how would I be able to add non-breaking spaces into the XML so they will render inside the TextArea component? I've tried and   without success. I scoured the net for some help with this and found some information about modifying the font embedding xml file with a new entry for the non-breaking space and that didn't work either, so that leaves me somewhat stumped.

flash doesn't handle nested lists (as you now know). you can work-around that limitation using css and creating your own indent styles. css have a marginLeft property you can use.

TextArea component wont word wrap.. help!

I cant seem to get the TextArea component in Flash 8 to word
wrap. I've set the word wrap parameter to "true" but it will not
word wrap. It just puts all the text in one line. How do you fix
this? Also, is there a way to control the font size in the TextArea
component?
Thanks!

ad 1. sorry but in my instance true is set by default to word
wrap option and it works.
ad 2 instanceName.setStyle("fontSize",24)
u can learn more about TextArea by lookin to the script below
( its just an example):
function setStyles(instance) {
instance.setStyle("themeColor", "blue");
instance.setStyle("color", "blue");
instance.setStyle("fontFamily", "Courier New");
instance.setStyle("fontSize", 12);
instance.setStyle("fontWeight", "bold");
instance.setStyle("backgroundColor", 0xDDE0FF);
instance.setStyle("borderStyle", "alert");
setStyles(myTextArea);

Flex TextArea HTMLText issue.

Hi All,
I am using a Flex textArea control and recently i found an interesting behaviour while using htmlText property of the TextArea.
By default the htmlText has "<P align=''left' /> tag.When i added bullets to the text it adds the "<LI>" tag to the text and get rid of the the "<P/>" tag.
The problem is that,when i add bullets and the right align the text,it displays fine on the textArea ,but since the htmlText does not have the "<P/>" tag,when i send the htmlText to the backend to generate the .jpg preview of the screen,it is not aligning the text to right.
Bottom line:"when text right aligned with bullets,htmlText does not have "<P/>" tag and only have "<LI/>" tag.
Does anyone know about this issue?
Any ideas to overcome this issue?
Thanks
Kartik B

Formatting Tags appearing in TextArea Component

I'm having an issue with TextFormat tags that are appearing
in textfields. Here's an overview of what I'm doing:
Basically, I'm trying to grab the text from a textArea
component: (myText = myTextArea.text")
Because I want to retain formatting, I have the textArea set
to be html.
Thus, myText becomes the text you see below
So the myText data is then stored in XML, but later when I
try to access it, it fills that same textArea component with the
literal code rather than the formatted text. How do I take that
TextFormat string and convert it back to it's original form? I've
tried myTextArea.htmlText but I guess that isn't it. Thanks for the
help!
Thanks!

Let me make my question easier to understand: ;-)
I've got the text formatting (below) in a string. Using that
string, how do I display the text it contains correctly?
Thanks!

TextArea Component - a href will not work locally (on CDROM)

Hi,
I have many products out there that use a TextArea Component
with an <a> tag that calls another url as in:
<a href="anotherPage.html">Click Here</a>
This functionality stop working on Flash Player 9. My old
products are useless until Adobe fixes the bug, but now I have to
figure out how a way to get around this.
Any ideas?
Thanks!!

Thanks! That helps although the simptoms are new.
This was working on Flash Player 8, the version in which they
decided to bring about this sandboxes ordeal.
And now in Flash Player 9 it still works if I tell the getURL
to target a "_blank" page. It only breaks when I target "_self".
Now, that's not very secure to me.
But I wish they come up with a better solution. With the
sandbox issue the power of Flash has been rendered useless in local
devices. I'm think of developing in a different language just
because of this.

How do I change the font of a textArea component?
How do I put unicode text (Japanese) into a textArea

Thanks

Thank you Krys for your tip, but as you can see thrue this link www.pccruzadas.com when you type a message I don't want you to go for the top of the page, I want you to remain in the tesArea and see the message I put there after you click the button. Sory for my English.

TextArea component scrollpolicy being ignored

The scroll policy for the textArea component appears to be "auto", and that works just fine.
However, I want to be able to turn it off in certain situations, i.e., not have the scroll bar appear.
I do the following which I thought would turn it off but the scroll bar still shows up.
Any help would be appreciated.
Code Snippet:
     myTF = new TextFormat("Arial", 10, 0xFFFFFF,false);
     myText_mc.myTextArea.setStyle("textFormat", myTF);
     myText_mc.myTextArea.verticalScrollPolicy = "OFF";
     myText_mc.myTextArea.horizontalScrollPolicy = "OFF";
Thanks,
Vivian

should be all lower case
myText_mc.myTextArea.verticalScrollPolicy = "off";

TextArea component issue

I have used a TextArea component, and for unknown reasons the
space bar
on the keyboard does not work when entering text once it is
published.
There is no additional actionscript being used outside the
defaults.
Anyone ever had this happen to them? Thanks.

Use the performance profiler to see what the bottleneck is. Are you using
FP 10.1?
