Question

I am using html in xml for some names in actionscript and there is ;quot;

Here is my variable where I want actionscript to read the name as html. Instead of normal text.

    var field:TextField = currItem.createH3Black(0, 0, 180, 10, h3Size, h3Leading, font, "Left", _root.white, currItem.name.toUpperCase(), "textItem");

How do I make actionscript treadt the currItem.name.toUpperCase() as html? So that the name shows as HTM with "" . Instead of showing ;quot;

Try this:
