Ok, I'm going back through my code and adding validators. Sample code:
<!-- Validate email -->
<mx:EmailValidator
id="emailValidator"
source="{strEMail}" property="text"
/>
...
<mx:FormItem label="E-Mail" >
<mx:TextInput id="strEMail" errorColor="#FE020E"
shadowDistance="5"
dropShadowColor="#030000" dropShadowEnabled="true" />
</mx:FormItem>
This puts a simple and thin red line around the box and if the user
mousse over the box then text appears with what is wrong. The problem is
that it's hard to see this thin red outline. I tried playing with the
colors but it doesn't show that well.
I need to do one or all of the following:
- Make the outline thicker
- Make the whole textbox turn red
- Make the text turn red
... or any other way to enhance the visual queue to the user that there
is something wrong with the text.
Thanks!
