RichTextEditor and Scrolling

[goat_boy]

I'm using a RichTextEditor for a chat program. As the users type the text gets
placed in the RichTextEditor but the scrollbar does not go to the bottom of the
screen. I've tried the following but this does not seem to work for
RichTextEditor.
valueCommit="conversation.verticalScrollPosition=c onversation.maxVerticalScrollP
osition"
Is there a solution to getting the scrollbar to move down as the text area
fills up?

I found the solution. You have to access the TextArea child that's inside the
RichTextEditor. The following will move the scrollbar position to the bottom
for a RichTextEditor: (look at the valueCommit)

<mx:RichTextEditor id="rte"
valueCommit="rte.textArea.verticalScrollPosition=r te.textArea.maxVerticalScrollP
osition"/>
