Some Obscure Problems

Hello,

I have a Spark Text Area that has been packaged into a a SWC, and then that SWC is implemented in a Flex 4 application, then that Flex application is loaded into a SWFLoader in a parent Flex 4 application.

In this environment, the highlighted text in the TextArea is completely black.  What style properties would be used to address this and why is it black?

Also, even more troubling, the textFlow of the TextArea is not dispatching the FlowOperationEvent.FLOW_OPERATION_BEGIN or FlowOperationEvent.FLOW_OPERATION_END events in this configuration.

Any recommendations?
