[RESOLVED] CDATA not showing HTML in text field???

[smayer72]

Hi all

Simple XML import with text and an html link and an image. For some reason the html tags are rendering as text, not html in the dynamic text field. I have looked at countless posts and tuts but found nothing that helps. From all I've read I am doing things right, but obviously I am not. I must be missing something. I would appreciate if someone could take a look at the attached code and explain where I am going wrong.

XML File

<?xml version="1.0" ?>

And the AS2 that load the file and displays the text

// XML LOADING
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
var buildMenu_SI:Number;
xmlLoader = "Loading ";
//
projXML = new XML();
projXML.ignoreWhite = true;
projXML.onLoad = function(success) {
	if (success) {
		ima.theData.textBody.html = true;
		ima.theData.textBody.htmlText=this.firstChild.childNodes[0];
	}
}
xmlLoader = "";

projXML.load("onlineSales.xml");
//

Either select the dynamic text field and toggle on the "Render text as HTML" option in the properties (looks like "<>")

Or put the following code in your actionscript:

var html = yourTextfield.html;

Where "yourTextfield" is the instance name of your dynamic textfield.
