I want to add xml formatting tags to an input string in flash.

After the user has applied formatting i want to run through the string and insert the needed tags at the right places. Any ideas on how to do this would be greatly appreciated.

I would rather not use the htmltext because it inserts a whole bunch of tags that i don't need.

Google doesn't do it for me anymore...

Er, so you've got a flash textbox and the htmltext of that contains too many tags?

Probably easiest to work from there and strip out the tags using regexs (better yet, xslt on the server-side).
