I tried to locate one answer for this on the boards and couldn't yet. I've been finding contadictory answers.

I've got a dynamic text field that I want to put some HTML text into. I've checked the HTML box for the text properties and it seems to work with underline tags <u></u> and anchors <a href=""></a>, but as soon as I use bolding or italics, the text doens't show up. I'm just assigning text to the variable name for the text field like this:

Code:
viewer.sourcetext = "<b>" + article_name+ "</b>, " + article_date;
and the result I'm getting looks like this:

Code:
, Tues Apr 15, 2001
and the headline text that should be at the start of that string in bold just doesn't show at all.

Is there a way to mix bold text into your HTML text fields if the tags are apparently broken?
