>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLEX-17483
>             Project: Apache Flex
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: mx: TextArea
>    Affects Versions: Adobe Flex SDK 3.2 (Release)
>         Environment: Affected OS(s): All OS Platforms
> Affected OS(s): All OS Platforms
> Language Found: English
>            Reporter: Adobe JIRA
>            Priority: Minor

> Steps to reproduce:
> 1. Open the attached .swf file
> 2. Note there is no trailing newline after the last line in the editable TextArea
> 3. Click the large button to set the htmlText to a slightly altered version of itself
> 4. Note that now there is a trailing newline after the last line of text.
> 5. remove the trailing newline and return to step 3 to repeat 
>  Actual Results:
>  a miscreant newline is added to the textArea when it's own input is read
>  
>  Expected Results:
>  the text should be left unchanged. 
>  
>  Workaround (if any):
>  store the number of characters that should be in the TextArea, and after applying the htmlText and calling text_area.validateNow() check to see if there is an extra character. If so, remove it like this (for a TextArea named text_area):
> text_area.setSelection(text_area.text.length-1, text_area.text.length);
> text_area.replaceSelectedText('');
