htmlText (TextField.htmlText property)

public htmlText : String

If the text field is an HTML text field, this property contains the HTML representation of the

text field's contents. If the text field is not an HTML text field, it behaves identically to the

text property. You can indicate that a text field is an HTML text field in the Property

inspector, or by setting the text field's

html property to true.
