TextField formatting

Hello all,

Why wont my textfield show 12-point verdana? What am I doing wrong?

Code:

---

// Create a new text field to hold text. NOTE the UI scrollbar must be on the second frame
// becasue the textfield created here must first be created before the uibar instance
this.createTextField("table_txt", 99, -26.1, -13, 347.9, 166.5);
table_txt.multiline = true;
table_txt.html = true;
table_txt.font = "Verdana";
table_txt.size = 12;

// Creates column headers, formatted in bold, separated by tabs.
var rowHeaders:String = "";

// Creates rows with data.
var row_1:String = "<b>BSI    </b>\tGloves and eye protection";
var row_2:String = "<b>Scene Saftey</b>\tScene is safe";
var row_3:String = "<b>Resources</b>\t3 person aid crew, ALS crew added if needed";
var row_4:String = "<b>-----------------------------------------------------------------------------</b>\t";
var row_5:String = "<b>CC/MOI</b>\tMVA, decreased LOC";
var row_6:String = "<b>Respirations</b>\t20";
var row_7:String = "<b>Pulse</b>\tRadial at 110, strong";
var row_8:String = "<b>Mental Status</b>\tAwake, but has difficulty with attention";
var row_9:String = "<b>Skin Signs</b>\tCool, moist, pale";
var row_10:String = "<b>Obvious Trauma</b>\tNone";
var row_11:String = "<b>Blood Pressure</b>\t112/palp (later 120/74)";

// Sets two tabstops, at 25 and 100 points.
table_txt.htmlText = "<textformat tabstops='[25,100]'>";
table_txt.htmlText += rowHeaders;
table_txt.htmlText += row_1;
table_txt.htmlText += row_2 ;
table_txt.htmlText += row_3 ;
table_txt.htmlText += row_4 ;
table_txt.htmlText += row_5 ;
table_txt.htmlText += row_6 ;
table_txt.htmlText += row_7 ;
table_txt.htmlText += row_8 ;
table_txt.htmlText += row_9 ;
table_txt.htmlText += row_10 ;
table_txt.htmlText += row_11 ;
table_txt.htmlText += "</textformat>";

Thanks for any help

Never mind figured it out... you need your html tags in the sting vars...

Code:

---


// Creates rows with data.
var row_1:String = "<FONT FACE ='Verdana' SIZE ='12'><b>BSI    </b>\tGloves and eye protection</FONT>";
var row_2:String = "<FONT FACE ='Verdana' SIZE ='12'><b>Scene Saftey</b>\tScene is safe</FONT>";
