/**
 *  The TextInput control is a single-line text field
 *  that is optionally editable.
 *  All text in this control must use the same styling
 *  unless it is HTML text.
 *  The TextInput control supports the HTML rendering
 *  capabilities of Flash Player and AIR.
 *
 *  <p>TextInput controls do not include a label, although you
 *  can add one by using a Label control or by nesting the
 *  TextInput control in a FormItem control in a Form container.
 *  When used in a FormItem control, a TextInput control
 *  indicates whether a value is required.
 *  TextInput controls have a number of states, including filled,
 *  selected, disabled, and error.
 *  TextInput controls support formatting, validation, and keyboard
 *  equivalents; they also dispatch change and enter events.</p>
 *
 *  <p>If you disable a TextInput control, it displays its contents
 *  in the color specified by the <code>disabledColor</code>
 *  style.
 *  To disallow editing the text, you set the <code>editable</code>
 *  property to <code>false</code>.
 *  To conceal the input text by displaying asterisks instead of the
 *  characters entered, you set the <code>displayAsPassword</code> property
 *  to <code>true</code>.</p>
 * 
 *  <p>The TextInput control is used as a subcomponent in several other controls,
 *  such as the RichTextEditor, NumericStepper, and ComboBox controls. As a result,
 *  if you assign style properties to a TextInput control by using a CSS type selector, 
 *  Flex applies those styles to the TextInput when it appears in the other controls 
 *  unless you explicitly override them.</p>
 *
 *  <p>The TextInput control has the following default sizing characteristics:</p>
 *     <table class="innertable">
 *        <tr>
 *           <th>Characteristic</th>
 *           <th>Description</th>
 *        </tr>
 *        <tr>
 *           <td>Default size</td>
 *           <td>The size of the text with a default minimum size of 22 pixels high and 160 pixels wide</td>
 *        </tr>
 *        <tr>
 *           <td>Minimum size</td>
 *           <td>0 pixels</td>
 *        </tr>
 *        <tr>
 *           <td>Maximum size</td>

   /**
     *  Specifies the text displayed by the TextInput control, including HTML markup that
     *  expresses the styles of that text.
     *  When you specify HTML text in this property, you can use the subset of HTML 
     *  tags that is supported by the Flash TextField control.
     * 
     *  <p> When you set this property, the HTML markup is applied
     *  after the CSS styles for the TextInput instance are applied.
     *  When you get this property, the HTML markup includes
     *  the CSS styles.</p>
     *  
     *  <p>For example, if you set this to be a string such as,
     *  <code>"This is an example of &lt;b&gt;bold&lt;/b&gt; markup"</code>,
     *  the text "This is an example of <b>bold</b> markup" appears
     *  in the TextInput with whatever CSS styles normally apply.
     *  Also, the word "bold" appears in boldface font because of the
     *  <code>&lt;b&gt;</code> markup.</p>
     *
     *  <p>HTML markup uses characters such as &lt; and &gt;,
     *  which have special meaning in XML (and therefore in MXML). So,  
     *  code such as the following does not compile:</p>
     *  
     *  <pre>
     *  &lt;mx:TextInput htmlText="This is an example of &lt;b&gt;bold&lt;/b&gt; markup"/&gt;
     *  </pre>
     *  
     *  <p>There are three ways around this problem.</p>
     *  
     *  <ul>
     *  
     *  <li>
     *  
     *  <p>Set the <code>htmlText</code> property in an ActionScript method called as 
     *  an <code>initialize</code> handler:</p>
     *  
     *  <pre>
     *  &lt;mx:TextInput id="myTextInput" initialize="myTextInput_initialize()"/&gt;
     *  </pre>
     *  
     *  <p>where the <code>myTextInput_initialize</code> method is in a script CDATA section:</p>
     *  
     *  <pre>
     *  &lt;fx:Script&gt;
     *  &lt;![CDATA[
     *  private function myTextInput_initialize():void {
     *      myTextInput.htmlText = "This is an example of &lt;b&gt;bold&lt;/b&gt; markup";
     *  }
     *  ]]&gt;
     *  &lt;/fx:Script&gt;
     *  
     *  </pre>
     *  
     *  <p>This is the simplest approach because the HTML markup
     *  remains easily readable.
     *  Notice that you must assign an <code>id</code> to the TextInput
     *  so you can refer to it in the <code>initialize</code>
     *  handler.</p>
     *  
     *  </li>
     *  
     *  <li>
     *  
     *  <p>Specify the <code>htmlText</code> property by using a child tag
     *  with a CDATA section. A CDATA section in XML contains character data
     *  where characters like &lt; and &gt; aren't given a special meaning.</p>
     *  
     *  <pre>
     *  &lt;mx:TextInput&gt;
     *      &lt;mx:htmlText&gt;&lt;![CDATA[This is an example of &lt;b&gt;bold&lt;/b&gt; markup]]&gt;&lt;/mx:htmlText&gt;
     *  &lt;mx:TextInput/&gt;
     *  </pre>
     *  
     *  <p>You must write the <code>htmlText</code> property as a child tag
     *  rather than as an attribute on the <code>&lt;mx:TextInput&gt;</code> tag
     *  because XML doesn't allow CDATA for the value of an attribute.
     *  Notice that the markup is readable, but the CDATA section makes 
     *  this approach more complicated.</p>
     *  
     *  </li>
     *  
     *  <li>
     *  
     *  <p>Use an <code>hmtlText</code> attribute where any occurences
     *  of the HTML markup characters &lt; and &gt; in the attribute value
     *  are written instead as the XML "entities" <code>&amp;lt;</code>
     *  and <code>&amp;gt;</code>:</p>
     *  
     *  <pre>
     *  &lt;mx:TextInput htmlText="This is an example of &amp;lt;b&amp;gt;bold&amp;lt;/b&amp;gt; markup"/&amp;gt;
     *  </pre>
     *  
     *  Adobe does not recommend this approach because the HTML markup becomes
     *  nearly impossible to read.
     *  
     *  </li>
     *  
     *  </ul>
     *  
     *  <p>If the <code>condenseWhite</code> property is <code>true</code> 
     *  when you set the <code>htmlText</code> property, multiple
     *  white-space characters are condensed, as in HTML-based browsers;
     *  for example, three consecutive spaces are displayed
     *  as a single space.
     *  The default value for <code>condenseWhite</code> is
     *  <code>false</code>, so you must set <code>condenseWhite</code>
     *  to <code>true</code> to collapse the white space.</p>
     *  
     *  <p>If you read back the <code>htmlText</code> property quickly
     *  after setting it, you get the same string that you set.
     *  However, after the LayoutManager runs, the value changes
     *  to include additional markup that includes the CSS styles.</p>
     *  
     *  <p>Setting the <code>htmlText</code> property affects the <code>text</code>
     *  property in several ways. 
     *  If you read the <code>text</code> property quickly after setting
     *  the <code>htmlText</code> property, you get <code>null</code>,
     *  which indicates that the <code>text</code> corresponding to the new
     *  <code>htmlText</code> has not yet been determined.
     *  However, after the LayoutManager runs, the <code>text</code> property 
     *  value changes to the <code>htmlText</code> string with all the 
     *  HTML markup removed; that is,
     *  the value is the characters that the TextInput actually displays.</p>
     *   
     *  <p>Conversely, if you set the <code>text</code> property,
     *  any previously set <code>htmlText</code> is irrelevant.
     *  If you read the <code>htmlText</code> property quickly after setting
     *  the <code>text</code> property, you get <code>null</code>,
     *  which indicates that the <code>htmlText</code> that corresponds to the new
     *  <code>text</code> has not yet been determined.
     *  However, after the LayoutManager runs, the <code>htmlText</code> property 
     *  value changes to the new text plus the HTML markup for the CSS styles.</p>
     *
     *  <p>To make the LayoutManager run immediately, you can call the
     *  <code>validateNow()</code> method on the TextInput.
     *  For example, you could set some <code>htmlText</code>,
     *  call the <code>validateNow()</code> method, and immediately
     *  obtain the corresponding <code>text</code> that doesn't have
     *  the HTML markup.</p>
     *  
     *  <p>If you set both <code>text</code> and <code>htmlText</code> properties 
     *  in ActionScript, whichever is set last takes effect.
     *  Do not set both in MXML, because MXML does not guarantee that
     *  the properties of an instance get set in any particular order.</p>
     *  
     *  <p>Setting either <code>text</code> or <code>htmlText</code> property
     *  inside a loop is a fast operation, because the underlying TextField
     *  that actually renders the text is not updated until
     *  the LayoutManager runs.</p>
     *
     *  <p>If you try to set this property to <code>null</code>,
     *  it is set, instead, to the empty string.
     *  If the property temporarily has the value <code>null</code>,
     *  it indicates that the <code>text</code> has been recently set
     *  and the corresponding <code>htmlText</code>
     *  has not yet been determined.</p>
