I have this really strange issue, and I don't expect much of a response here, but thought I would give it a shot.

I have a flex textarea component, controlled by a custom scrollbar. The textarea is loaded when a list of buttons is clicked on, different buttons bring in different text content depending on which button is clicked.

Everything works fine, except this very strange issue. When I hold the mouse button and select and highlight the text, then click another button making the textarea fade out and come back in with the text, then there is not text in the content area. This doesn't happen any other time and the text that is being highlighted never dissapears. It only dissapears when I highlight the text and then click to other buttons. Even if I go back to the original button, it is still gone.

Does anyone have any idea why this might happen? Why would selecting text make text after a transition in the same textfield dissapear?
