Question

i am trying to apply setTextFormat function for my dynamic text filed in as 3,

but its not taking. Please have a look at my code and suggest me where i am going wrong.

var name1:TextField = new TextField();
addChild(name1);

var format:TextFormat = new TextFormat();
format.color = 0x000000;
format.size = 18;
format.underline = true;
format.italic = true;

function imagerollover(e:MouseEvent):void{    
     name1.setTextFormat(format);
     name1.visible = true;
     name1.text = myXML.data[Number(e.currentTarget.name)].@description;            
} 

Am taking images and description from an external xml file.
