Hi ,

Declare the text field or the text input to have html as true..
Have the smiley as a jpeg image
Then use the image tag to embed it in the text field..

//can use the following code..

this.createTextField("my_txt", 10, 10, 10, 450, 450);
my_txt.html = true;
my_txt.htmlText = "<p>text goes here:<img src='smiley.jpg'>";

You can also have the smiley as movie clip and embed it..
Hope this helps..

regards
Jaci

I have also a problem to have inline emoticons in my text
The code that jaci putted here is good except it will not work when you put text after the image, the image will be shown after or before the text but not between.

The image tag needs to be closed perhaps?

Jaci, how does one embed a movie clip in the way you are suggesting?
