textfield has a retrict value that acts as a filter. Chris is saying that it may have a value in there already, probably something with the following letters: "M J O E" as the Executive is being filtered down to only e's as the other letters are not in the filter.
btw, what is output when you trace the value? It may also be a font character thing. textfield.restrict http://www.adobe.com/support/flash/action_scripts/actionscript_dictionary/actionscript_dictionary762.html Embedded fonts http://www.flash-mx.com/news/archives/000136.cfm On 05/07/06, Rick Lecoat <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Chris, thanks for your speedy reply (I guess that if I was going to get a reply at 8.30 in the morning UK time it would have been from Australia!) Like I said in my initial post, I'm completely new to Actionscript (and all of Flash, really) and so your response, whilst I am sure it is the correct answer, is a bit cryptic to me. Could you maybe flesh out your reply with a bit of 'idiot guide' stuff so that I can take it and run with it? Many many thanks. -- Rick Lecoat -- Original message: Received from Chris Velevitch on 5/7/06 at 08:45 >Sounds like restrict is not null. > > >Chris _______________________________________________ Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com To change your subscription options or search the archive: http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders Brought to you by Fig Leaf Software Premier Authorized Adobe Consulting and Training http://www.figleaf.com http://training.figleaf.com
