| TextField.condenseWhite Property | Flash 6 (undocumented) |
| specifies whether HTML whitespace should be condensed | read/write | Description When set to true, the Boolean condenseWhite property causes a field's HTML text to be condensed, removing all excess whitespace characters (tab, line break, space, etc.). Hence, the field's HTML rendering mirrors a typical web browser multiple spaces behave as a single space between words and the newline character "\n" no longer serves as a line break; the <P> and <BR> tags must be used instead. In this mode, HTML text parsing behaves like Flash's XML parser when the XML.ignoreWhite property is set to true. The condenseWhite property allows you to use existing HTML text in Flash without removing excess whitespace manually. The default value of condenseWhite is false. Even when set to true, it has no effect unless the field's html property is also true. The condenseWhite property is an undocumented feature of the TextField object, but you can rely on it being supported in future versions as well. The overly cautious developer can manually remove whitespace from the HTML text to make it appear the same in Flash as it does in a web browser.
