[flexcoders] Re: String validators and turning off the red

[Tim Hoff]

Here's a simple way:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:Application xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml";
layout="absolute">

<mx:Script>
      <![CDATA[
           public function turnOff(e:Event):void
           {
                sv.enabled = false;
                test.errorString = "";
           }



           public function turnOn(e:Event):void
           {
                sv.enabled = true;
           }
      ]]>
</mx:Script>

<mx:TextInput id="test"/>

<mx:Button top="60" label="Turn Off" click="turnOff(event)"/>

<mx:Button top="60" left="100" label="Turn On" click="turnOn(event)"/>

<mx:StringValidator id="sv" required="true" source="{test}"
property="text" enabled="true"/>

</mx:Application>

box remains red. How can I tell a text input to not be red anymore. Here
