It seems like the TEXT_INPUT event is fired before the .text property is set
with the user's input. So, when you try to read the value from the text
input, it returns an empty string; which, parsed as an integer, returns NaN.
So, you have get the current input char from the event.text field, and check
if the input text has a lenght > 0.
You can try something like this:
stop();
ageField.addEventListener(TextEvent.TEXT_INPUT, convertAge);
function convertAge(event:TextEvent):void {
trace("ageField.text.length:"+ageField.text.length);
var resultTxt:TextField = new TextField();
resultTxt.border = true;
addChild(resultTxt);
var inputChar:String = event.text;
if(ageField.text.length > 0) {
resultTxt.text = (parseInt(ageField.text) + inputChar).toString();
} else {
resultTxt.text = inputChar;
}
}
Cheers
