Has anyone developed an input tool for that has the functionality of  
Masked Textinput 
(http://weblogs.macromedia.com/flexteam/archives/2006/11/component_mas
ke.cfm), without the drawbacks?

The problems that I seem to have are mainly the way it behaves when 
using it;

1) When you select the entire text and start typing, it just appends 
your text to the end.

2) You cannot insert text into the middle of a field.

3) If you delete a character out of the middle of a field it leaves a 
space.

4) If there is a space in the middle of text and you try to select 
the entire field to delete it, the selection disappears when you 
release the mouse.

I have posted this info on their blog, with no apparent response.

I am about to embark on creating quite a few data entry forms, and 
would like something that I can use that has masking functionality 
but behaves similar to what most users expect.

Are there alternatives to "Masked TextInput"? Where can I find them?

Paul
