[flexcoders] Form Control focus and Default Button

[Allen Manning]

Hello Flexcoders,   I’m working on a simple login form and attempting to accomplish the following:   + Assign a default button to login so after page loads and you hit enter the form submits, no need to click in to the page. + Assign selection to the first of the two text fields that have no text, otherwise focus should be on the button.   I have made a few attempts but I have not been able to get it all working, only some of the functionality here and there.    Thanks for any help, Allen www.prismix.com/   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2003/mxml"     initialize="checkLoginFormForSelection();">     <mx:Script><![CDATA[                 private function checkLoginFormForSelection() : Void         {               if (email.text.length == 0) {                             email.setFocus(email);                 Selection.setSelection(1,1)                 return;                         }                         if (password.text.length == 0) {                                 password.setFocus(password);                 Selection.setSelection(1,1)                 return;                             }                 }      ]]></mx:Script>     <mx:Panel title="Login Form Focus" defaultButton="login">         <mx:Form>             <mx:FormItem label="Email">                 <mx:TextInput id="email" text="[EMAIL PROTECTED]"/>             </mx:FormItem>             <mx:FormItem label="Password">                 <mx:TextInput id="password" text=""/>             </mx:FormItem>         </mx:Form>         <mx:Button click="mx.controls.Alert.show('You just logged in');" label="Login" id="login"/>     </mx:Panel> </mx:Application>     -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com YAHOO!
