I want to learn how to take my text strings and format them just as I currently do on an HTML page. Right now I use PHP to build an XHTML page that contains CSS tags which effect: links (hover), color (bkgd and foreground) and font. I would like to learn how to bring that into a flash textfield. Below is the code that currently gets produced from my PHP (at least a small sample of it). If someone had the patience to take it step by step with me that would be f'n great. I am very comfortable with AS 2.0. I assume the first step would be to import the PHP strings and load the CSS sheet but nim not quite sure where to go from there (below is not php although i used the tag - i like it colored better)....
