Flash Player 9 does not support Ordered List

Surprisingly Flash Player 9 does not support Ordered List <ol> tag for TextField.htmlText property. It gives output same as Unordered List <ul>. Also it does not support “type” attribute of <ul> tag.

TextField.htmlText supports List Item <li> tag but that is also limited. It does not support “type” attribute of <li> tag. It supports only “circle” as a type of <li> tag.

Hope that Flash Player 10 will support <ol> tag :)

    Flash Player 9 even does not support . It just supports tag. This simply means that you can not create hierarchy of texts in the TextField of Flash Player 9.
