Hey,

There are currently no full-fledged html renderers in Actionscript/Flex, I've had that exact question/desire for a while and haven't found anything real promising :/

You might want to try MotionAndColor's Wrapper html rendering engine for Actionscript (here's the source), that might be able to do basic tables.

I have a feeling some people'll start rolling out with some neat HTML/table renderers with the new Flash Text Layout Framework (TLF). I have been able to write a simple ruby html parser that converts html tags into a few TLF tags and some corresponding CSS definitions. That way I can create a simple table like you'd find in an MSWord document, in Flash.

But there's still not really anything hardcore out there yet.

Hope that helps, Lance
