I've experimented a little with some html text and here: (http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4605534/TLF.fxp) is an example with 2 html texts I use: 1. crashText.html will crash the swf 2. ConstraintTextContainerText.html will throw this error: ArgumentError: Error #2004: One of the parameters is invalid. at Error$/throwError() at flash.text.engine::TextBlock/createTextLine() at org.tinytlf.layout::ConstraintTextContainer/createTextLine()[C:\Documents and Settings\Jo\Adobe Flash Builder Burrito Preview\TLF\libs\org\tinytlf\layout\ConstraintTextContainer.as:228] at org.tinytlf.layout::ConstraintTextContainer/renderBlockLines()[C:\Documents and Settings\Jo\Adobe Flash Builder Burrito Preview\TLF\libs\org\tinytlf\layout\ConstraintTextContainer.as:196] at org.tinytlf.layout::ConstraintTextContainer/layout()[C:\Documents and Settings\Jo\Adobe Flash Builder Burrito Preview\TLF\libs\org\tinytlf\layout\ConstraintTextContainer.as:142] at org.tinytlf.components::TextColumnContainer/layout()[C:\Documents and Settings\Jo\Adobe Flash Builder Burrito Preview\TLF\libs\org\tinytlf\components\TextColumnContainer.as:196] at org.tinytlf.layout::TextLayoutBase/renderBlockAcrossContainers()[C:\Documents and Settings\Jo\Adobe Flash Builder Burrito Preview\TLF\libs\org\tinytlf\layout\TextLayoutBase.as:198] at org.tinytlf.layout::TextLayoutBase/render()[C:\Documents and Settings\Jo\Adobe Flash Builder Burrito Preview\TLF\libs\org\tinytlf\layout\TextLayoutBase.as:134] at org.tinytlf::TextEngine/renderLines()[C:\Documents and Settings\Jo\Adobe Flash Builder Burrito Preview\TLF\libs\org\tinytlf\TextEngine.as:310] at org.tinytlf::TextEngine/render()[C:\Documents and Settings\Jo\Adobe Flash Builder Burrito Preview\TLF\libs\org\tinytlf\TextEngine.as:291] at org.tinytlf::TextEngine/onRender()[C:\Documents and Settings\Jo\Adobe Flash Builder Burrito Preview\TLF\libs\org\tinytlf\TextEngine.as:275] it seems that previousLine is null when trying to return the textLine Second I think the html parser shouldn't be strict: Why should throw an error (that will block all the application) if the tag(or other) doesn't match, leave it that way(plain text) so you can see it renders and there's a problem with the html not with the renderer/library.

I’ve started to play around with your great library and I want to point it out some problems I’ve encountered.
I’ve experimented a little with some html text and here: (http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4605534/TLF.fxp) is an example with 2 html texts I use:

1. crashText.html will crash the swf
2. ConstraintTextContainerText.html will throw this error:

ArgumentError: Error #2004: One of the parameters is invalid.
at Error$/throwError()
at flash.text.engine::TextBlock/createTextLine()
at org.tinytlf.layout::ConstraintTextContainer/createTextLine()[C:\Documents and Settings\Jo\Adobe Flash Builder Burrito Preview\TLF\libs\org\tinytlf\layout\ConstraintTextContainer.as:228]
at org.tinytlf.layout::ConstraintTextContainer/renderBlockLines()[C:\Documents and Settings\Jo\Adobe Flash Builder Burrito Preview\TLF\libs\org\tinytlf\layout\ConstraintTextContainer.as:196]
at org.tinytlf.layout::ConstraintTextContainer/layout()[C:\Documents and Settings\Jo\Adobe Flash Builder Burrito Preview\TLF\libs\org\tinytlf\layout\ConstraintTextContainer.as:142]
at org.tinytlf.components::TextColumnContainer/layout()[C:\Documents and Settings\Jo\Adobe Flash Builder Burrito Preview\TLF\libs\org\tinytlf\components\TextColumnContainer.as:196]
at org.tinytlf.layout::TextLayoutBase/renderBlockAcrossContainers()[C:\Documents and Settings\Jo\Adobe Flash Builder Burrito Preview\TLF\libs\org\tinytlf\layout\TextLayoutBase.as:198]
at org.tinytlf.layout::TextLayoutBase/render()[C:\Documents and Settings\Jo\Adobe Flash Builder Burrito Preview\TLF\libs\org\tinytlf\layout\TextLayoutBase.as:134]

at org.tinytlf::TextEngine/onRender()[C:\Documents and Settings\Jo\Adobe Flash Builder Burrito Preview\TLF\libs\org\tinytlf\TextEngine.as:275]

it seems that previousLine is null when trying to return the textLine

Second I think the html parser shouldn’t be strict: Why should throw an error (that will block all the application) if the tag(or other) doesn’t match, leave it that way(plain text) so you can see it renders and there’s a problem with the html not with the renderer/library. If the html renders than tinytlf should render too.

Thanks,
Have a nice day!

This is a good feature in Flash's textField. nice component there. is there a way to make the textField auto resize when the text content changes? This is a good feature in Flash’s textField.
