Hi,
I'm trying to to accomplish a multicolumn text (selectable, but non-editable) with simple html/css formatting (with a, b, h1 and span tags) in a Gumbo AS3 project. I'm loading the html text and css styles from external files.
Currently I'm using the CSSFormatResolver class from the SimpleEditorWithCSS example, with modifications to work without Flex specific classes. It works somehow, but not completely. Some of the styles from my css get applied to the paragraphs (font style and color for example), but some not (for example columnCount). For links (a tags) I'm not able to apply styles, and special styles (marked with span tag and styleName attribute) work depending on how I'm importing the text (TEXT_LAYOUT_FORMAT seems to work, HTML_FORMAT doesn't).
Are this kind of features supported in TLF at the moment, and if they are, what would be the easiest way to use them? Should I be able to import html text as it is, or should I parse it and import in text layout format? Is there a reference somewhere of which kind of markup should work with different formats to enable styles?
I didn't think that my scenario would be so rare, but somehow it seems really difficult on finding any simple examples in the very traditional htmltext/css setup...
Thanks for any ideas!
