Hello All, I have a project I'm working on in Flex 3.5 that involves writing a bunch of validation stuff for focusIn and focusOut for components. Depending on the type of validation selected this could generate an Alert message. So the problem I am running into is say I have two TextInput boxes, both with their FocusOut property set to validate a phone number, and if the phone number is incorrect, it will pop an alert and place the focus back into that textbox.. A user types in a Phone Number and hits tab. The focusOut on Text1 does its validation and pops a message that the phone number needs to be at least 10 digits in length. The focus gets pulled from Text2 to place it back into Text1 thereby calling the focus out in Text2 which is blank so it also pops an alert and now we have an infinite loop of alert and focus movement.
I've been trying to find a way to code around this and am fishing for ideas. One idea I had was to somehow override the focusManager for this form, but am not having much luck figuring out how to exactly do this. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks, Amanda
