Thanks Martin,
I'll probably be updating to trunk shortly and will look at this example.
In the example you give, how would you setFilter for digits plus
backspace, left/right arrows, begin/end, etc. to allow navigation in the
field?
I added an if statement looking for the individual key identifiers, but
don't know if there's a more "qooxdoo" way to do that.
Perhaps the ability to specify that all navigation-class keystrokes are
allowed?

Hello Ray,
is just added exactly that feature to the framework. So if you are
using the trunk of qooxdoo, you could enable the filter in one line:
textfield.setFilter(/[0-9]/);
Best,
Martin

Hi Ray,

I have a TextField which I'd like to limit to accepting only digits.
I've added a listener to the TextField and can grab each keystroke as it
is entered.
However, I'm unclear as to how I could decide whether or not to let this
keystroke through.
The TextField is not being updated until after I receive the keystroke,
so I suspect there's something I can do to say "not this keystroke."
Here's a little snippet that does the job:
--snip--
t = new qx.ui.form.TextField("");
this.getRoot().add(t);
t.addListener("keypress", function(e){
if(e.getKeyIdentifier().search(/[0-9]/) == -1) {
e.preventDefault();
}
});
--snip--
The magic line is the one with the "preventDefault" method. This way you tell
the browser to not perform the default behaviour. In our case here it is to
fill the textfield with the pressed key.
cheers,
Alex
