That doesn't seem to work either. Focus keeps returning to the original TextInput for some reason... I've even tried manually setting the focus to the next TextInput immediately after removing the FocusOut event listener on the first TextInput, before calling the pop-up window -- still doesn't work right; focus keeps going back to the first TextInput when the pop-up window closes.
Now, if I click somewhere else on the screen -- in other words, I don't click or tab into the next TextInput -- the window pops up just the one time... I do not have any FocusIn or FocusOut parameters set in that second TextInput, so I don't know why clicking or tabbing into that second TextInput would cause the problem... Anything else I should try? This is just ridiculous -- it *should* work, but for some reason focus keeps getting sent back to the first TextInput. I'm running Flex Builder 3.5a, and Flash Player 10,0,42,34.
