From the tutorial, it seems like you have to hard code the text into the textbox. However, is it possible to apply CSS to dynamic text?

sure thing.

 
var format = new TextField.StyleSheet();
var path = "http://www.kirupa.com/developer/mx2004/code/flash.css";
var quick = "
The quick Kirupa jumps over the lazy dog.

The quick Kirupa jumps over the lazy dog.

The quick Kirupa jumps over the lazy dog.

The quick Kirupa jumps over the lazy dog.";
format.load(path);
format.onLoad = function(loaded) {
	if (loaded) {
		output.styleSheet = format;
		output.text = quick;
	} else {
		output.text = "Error loading CSS file!";
	}
};



where "output" is the instance name of your dynamic text field. THIS IS FROM KIRUPA.COM

var yourtext:XML = new XML();
yourtext.load("yourContent.html");
yourtext.onLoad = function () {	
	instName_txt.htmlText = yourtext;
}

Crate a normal "yourContent".html to call in Flash

I've noticed that you can include every font you want into the css, as long as you type the name correct and off course embed all glyphs first.

Has anyone figured out how to get items in an unordered list to display horizontally? 

li { display: inline; }

doesn't seem to work in flash.

I've tried using css formating for a dynamic text box. If one css property is not recognized then the text that is formated by that property doesn't show. And the font-weight property doesn't seem to be recognized. I just don't understand where the problem is.
