<p> tags in text fields set to HTML???

[superG]

We have invalid characters in text fields ie: <p> tags, when loading data from a local object (even though the text field is set to render as HTML) ????????

Questions:
1) has anyone encountered this before?
2) know of a work around?
3) find/replace script we can run through the local object to replace the any <p> tags arising?

Thanks to anyone that can be of assistance

When you load the text into the textbox be sure to both have it html enabled and set to read htmlText

myTextBox.html = true
myTextBox.htmlText = textVar



And if the P tag doesn't work, try two BR tags (Equivelent of a P tag and I know it works).
