TextFormat.url 789
Description
Property; a Boolean value that indicates whether the text that uses this text format is underlined
(
true) or not (false). This underlining is similar to that produced by the <U> tag, but the latter
is not “true” underlining, because it does not skip descenders correctly. The default value is
null,
which indicates that the property is undefined.
Example
The following example creates a text field and sets the text style to underline.
this.createTextField("mytext",1,100,100,200,100);
mytext.multiline = true;
mytext.wordWrap = true;
mytext.border = true;
var myformat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
myformat.underline = true;
mytext.text = "this is my first test field object text";
mytext.setTextFormat(myformat);

Usage
my_fmt.url:String
Description
Property; indicates the URL that text in this text format hyperlinks to. If the url property is an
empty string, the text does not have a hyperlink. The default value is
null, which indicates that
the property is undefined.
Example
This example creates a text field that is a hyperlink to the Macromedia website.
var myformat:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
myformat.url = "http://www.macromedia.com";
this.createTextField("mytext",1,100,100,200,100);
mytext.multiline = true;
mytext.wordWrap = true;
mytext.border = true;
mytext.html = true;
mytext.text = "Go to Macromedia.com";
mytext.setTextFormat(myformat);
