Here's a code snippet that works in Flex 1.5. It may need some refactoring for version 2. This code uses the StringValidator. If Validator.isStructureValid fails, myfield_ti will be highlighted in red and there will be a little message saying it's a required field (or whatever the particular validator has by default, or a custom message you setup). Check the documentation for other types of validators you can use or extend one of them and do your own logic. You can set custom messages in attributes of the validator or through a custom validator.
************ MXML **************** <mx:Model id="myModel"> <myFieldName>{myfield_ti.text}</myFieldName> </mx:Model> <mx:StringValidator field="myModel.myFieldName"/> ************ ACTIONSCRIPT **************** // do this in the method that runs when you click your submit button Validator.enable(this,"myModel.myFieldName"); if (Validator.isStructureValid(this, 'myModel')) { //add code here to submit form } --- Alex & Alex <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi Mike, > > I understand the login, but how do I reference the > validation? > > I mean what would actually go where you have > "validation is success". > > I'm not an actionscrip expert!
