[flexcoders] textinput, validation, event

[timgerr]

Hey all,
I have a question for you.  I am trying to trigger an event when a
textinput validate is incorrect.  Here is my code

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml";
layout="absolute" creationComplete="MeChild()">
        <mx:Script>
                <![CDATA[
                        private var nArray:Array = new Array;
                        
                        private function ErrorAdd(event:Event):void
                        {
                                trace('working');
                                trace(event.target);
                        }
                        
                        private function MeChild():void
                        {
                                var getChild:Array = CVS.getChildren();
                                trace(getChild.length); 
                                
                                
                        }
                ]]>
        </mx:Script>
        <mx:Canvas id="CVS" x="74.5" y="10" width="478" height="373">
                <mx:TextInput id="t1" valid="ErrorAdd(event);"/>
                <mx:TextInput id="t2" y="30"/>
                <mx:Button label="Press ME" click="MeChild()" x="95.5" y="185"/>
        </mx:Canvas>
        <mx:StringValidator id="t1v" source="{t1}" property="text"
minLength="2" maxLength="10"/>
</mx:Application>

When I enter the correct informatin into t1, ErrorAdd should kick off
one of the traces.  I am not sure why not, what am I doing wrong.

Thanks,
