Break tag

The <br> tag creates a line break in the text field. You must set the text field to be a multiline text field to use this tag.

In the following example, the line breaks between sentences:

this.createTextField("text1_txt", 1, 10, 10, 200, 100);
text1_txt.html = true;
text1_txt.multiline = true;
text1_txt.htmlText = "The boy put on his coat.<br />His coat was <font color='#FF0033'>red</font> plaid.";

Hi Adobe,

Is there any way to type a break in an editable text field? When I try to do a search/replace to add <br/>'s to my htmlText they seem to be replaced by <p>'s.

Thanx

Is the attribute clear supported for the break element? I cannot get text to wrap properly around images without using a truckload of br elements.
