I have a keyUp event handler that adds the dot "." automatically for the text entered. The problem is that when the dot is added by actionscript the caret stays behind the added dot while typing, so the dot gets misplaced and the typing comes out wrong. How can I position the caret AFTER the autoinserted dot? I've tried to fool around with the Selection class functions but none of it seems to help..   Here is an example of the handler I'd like to use:   function onKeyUp( event )             {             if( MyTextField.text.length == 2 )                         {                                               MyTextField.text = MyTextField.text + ".";                         // HOW TO POSITION THE CARET HERE SO THAT IT COMES OUT LIKE THIS ON TEXTFIELD: "myenteredtext.CARET_BLINKING_HERE???                         }             }   -Mika -- Flexcoders Mailing List FAQ: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/flexcoders/files/flexcodersFAQ.txt Search Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com SPONSORED LINKS Computer software testing Macromedia flex Development Software developer YAHOO!
