I'm not really familiar with ANE development but I will keep your suggestion in mind. But is it not possible to display and edit HTML on mobile? This looks like a big shortcoming to me. Surely there has to be an option to raise the keyboard and proxy the key events to a RichEditableText component?
I don't want to end up using an ANE or a webview with JS based HTML editor if I can avoid it. I'm just a bit stunned that AIR is missing HTML functionalities for textarea's on mobile. I am willing to sacrifice performance if anyone has a way or workaround to get this done.
