textArea formatting

[morganulang]

Can anyone PLEAAAASE tell me how to format a textArea in 2004 pro??

I'm pulling text in through an XML doc and the textArea is formatted for HTML text. What I really want to do is, create a different default color for the text besides black. So if I don't define the text Color in a tag in my xml, it will just always be that default color. Or if anyone knows how to change the textAreas default color with a stylesheet. Anyone??

I've tried myTextArea.setStyle("color", 0xFFFFFF);
and it only works for non-html text

thanks,

Hey dude I gotta run to class right now but I'll just throw this out there: search in the Flash help for CSSStyleDeclaration. I had the same problem. Let me know if you need any more help!
