I would like to restrict user input to numbers only between letters. for example: the user is allowed to input "a2b", but "2ab" or "ab2" isn't allowed.
What's the best way to restrict the user from entering html entities in a text input box.I want to allow then to enter stuff like dollar signs, pound signs and spaces but anything such as
ActionScript Code: <> & ' / "
should be disallowed.Can I use the textfield restrict property or is that too complicated? Should I just parse what the user has entered them strip it out after?
is there a way to only allow a user to enter numbers in a text feild. setting embed text to numbers only worked for a while, but have to embed all now.
Is it possible to ignore white space between characters inside a text input field let's say a user types in "bri an" instead of "brian. Is there a way that white space is ignore and treated it as one word?
I am trying to automate the input process so that when a user inputs 3 numbers into the first field, it automatically jumps to the next one. I have the code to do it and it seems as though it should work but, for some reason, when I move focus from one field to the next the data in the previous field is re-arranged so that the last character input becomes the first (610 becomes 061 - for example).Here is my code:
How I can include the . in the restricted text field. I know how to restrict to only allow for numbers, letters etc... but what I need is to only allow numbers and the dot.
I need to restrict the user and allow only first character as + or - or 0-9 and other character as 0-9..how can i do this in regular expression validator the below expression works but i need in restrict field.
I use a TextInput component of Flex 4.5 to enter some text in English. I use the restrict attribute to ... restrict the keyboard input to characters a-zA-Z only. The problem is that if i copy/paste a word in another language, i can then paste it into the TextInput component. Is there a way to avoid that? If no, how can i validate the input against a specified language?I found out that the unicode set of Chinese+ language symbols is u4E00 to u9FFF. So i write the following:
var chRE:RegExp = new RegExp("[u4E00-u9FFF]", "g"); if (inputTI.text.match(chRE)) { trace("chinese");[code].........
I'm making a project in which I have a input/output text box. I'm trying to restrict the words that are able to be said in the input box, but I can't seem to figure out how I'd do that. I'd think that I'd use .replace, and possibly an if function which tells it that if a word used does not equal the allowed words, to replace it with something such as ###.
This code works when I click in the text field and try to enter letters. ActionScript Code: _root.InputTxt.text.restrict = "0-9"; However when I add this code to allow keyboard input, I can type other characters beside digits. Why is restrict not working?
I'm doing a calculator and making space between every third number, ie make 1000000 look like 1 000 000. It has to work dynamically, so if the result is 10000 it should show 10 000.
I'm doing a calculator and need help with making space between every third number, ie make 1000000 look like 1 000 000. It has to work dynamically, so if the result is 10000 it should show 10 000. I'm doing a flash 5 movie. I guess it's classic programming, but I'm not so good at that.
The following code does what I want (i.e. any key I press on the keyboard displays the character in uppercase format in the dynamic field on the stage) except that it does not properly restrict the characters to A-Z and 0-9. I can still press the <,.>?!/ keys and each of these chars shows up in the dynamic text field My dynamic text field is txt_BoxWhat is wrong with the following code?
var varKeyListener:Object = new Object();varKeyListener.onKeyDown = function(){ txt_Box.restrict = "A-Z 0-9"; txt_Box.text = String.fromCharCode(Key.getAscii()); txt_Box.text = txt_Box.text.toUpperCase();}
