I have some simple actionscript 3 code which compiles and runs without error but doesn’t do anything. I just want to change the bacground color to black (or transparent). How can this be done?

myTextArea.setStyle("backgroundColor", "0x000000");

I’ve tried the color argument without quotes and as “black” but nothing seemes to work.

    I can’t test it right now, but it should be enough to change your code to:

    myTextArea.textField.opaqueBackground = 0x000000;
    

    See this link on SO, if you need more help:

    How do I change the colours of a textarea in actionscript?
