David brings up a good point.
If you truly want to restrict then the previous methods will work,
but if what you are really wanting is to transform the input after
submission then you should leave it open and transform on the back
end or the actual output.

Subject: Re: [AFFUG Discuss] Forcing TextInput to be all-caps...
Not sure of the whole situation, but I'd suggest not restricting the
user to uppercase. Instead let them type whatever case they want and
transform the data when you save it. Don't make the user think. ;^)
It seems to work the way I wanted it to. Even if the user is typing
in lower-case, it shows the data in upper-case. That was the
behavior I wanted... Doesn't force them to use caps-lock or
shift... And it won't accept numbers or special characters -- that's
also what I wanted.
But I do get your point -- were it to force the user to hit caps-lock
or shift before entering data, that would be a bad thing.
