Hi,

I have a TextArea inside an itemEditor component, the problem is that when typing in the TextArea if the enter key is pressed the itemEditor resets itself rather moving the caret to the next line as expected:

  <mx:List width="100%" editable="true" >

    <mx:dataProvider>
      <mx:ArrayCollection>
        <mx:Array>
          <mx:Object title="Stairway to Heaven" />
        </mx:Array>
      </mx:ArrayCollection>
    </mx:dataProvider>

    <mx:itemRenderer>
      <mx:Component>
        <mx:Text height="100" text="{data.title}"/>
      </mx:Component>                       
    </mx:itemRenderer>

    <mx:itemEditor>
      <mx:Component>
        <mx:TextArea height="100" text="{data.title}"/>
      </mx:Component>                       
    </mx:itemEditor>

  </mx:List>

</mx:Application>

Could anyone advise how I can get around this strange behaviour and make the enter key behave as expected?

Thanks,

Chris
