Hi there,
I have a TextInput type that I am using as an itemEditor in a DataGrid.
I'm trying to prevent users from entering anything but 'dollar' amounts. I
have the class below, but it doesn't work as expected... I can edit the grid
cell, enter a letter, and then exit the grid without warning. It's only when I
click on the grid to edit it a second time, that the red halo with the 'invalid
input' flag appears. Help appreciated.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<mx:TextInput focusOut="validateData();"
xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml"; width="100%" height="100%"
implements="mx.core.IFactory">
<mx:Script>
<![CDATA[
import mx.events.ValidationResultEvent;
import mx.controls.dataGridClasses.DataGridColumn;
public var dataField:String;
private var rowData:Object;
[Bindable]private var contentValue:String;
public function newInstance():*{
return new GenericDollarFormatItemEditor();
}
private function validateData():void{
cv.validate();
}
override public function set data(value:Object):void {
if( value != null ){
rowData = value;
if( !(value is DataGridColumn) && dataField != null ){
contentValue = value[dataField];
this.text = value[dataField];
}
}
}
