Hi,
Is there any flex control in which i can see html content. My
html content contains images also.

1. I have used <mx:Html> tag with htmlText option. But i could
not see images in the content.
2. Moreover <mx:Html> tag can be used in AIR applications only. I
need this for normal flex application.

use itemRenderer with Text area or so . It will solve your problem.

Adobe Flash Player has limited capability to show rich text (html or rtf
or something else). Generally, we either don't use Flash/Flex for rich
text stuff or we overlay an html IFRAME over flex app to show html
content, it's a workaround that works well.

Search for Flex+IFrame technique, you would find a lot of examples.

Be aware that the IFrame solution is problematic:

(as I am discovering)
