Text ALMOST loading correctly

Question

not sure what i am missing here...i have a text box in a
movieclip....all created at runtime....i can see the first line of
the text, formatted just great....but then it is "cut off" at the
end...as you can see by the snippet of code from this movie, the
wordWrap is set to true....anything else that i am missing...the
text entries are much much longer than just one line....thanks

Answer 1

thanks kglad- you're always a great help!
In the end , i got fed up, and started over...rather than
first coding the background fill/ image and all the fancy stuff, i
started with creating the text box in an empty mc (as a seperate
function, and then i worked around that....it looks like this
(edited)
function addTxBox() {
txField = mcFrame.createTextField("txField",
holder.getNextHighestDepth(), 0, 0, bg._width, 150);
txField.wordWrap = true;
txField.setNewTextFormat(txStyle);
txField.autoSize = true;
txField.html = true;
txField.htmlText = entDate+"\n";
txField.htmlText += " >>> "+entTitle;
txField.htmlText += "\n"+entTx;
bg._height = txField.textHeight;
setOriginalProps();
and thanks for the clarity on multiline...i tried two
versions: with and without multiline. The difference was immediate
when in incoorporate "\n" . As you likely already know, without
multiline, the txField does not read/utilize \n and there is no
line break....that's a big difference!
