Why not just create separate fields, with colon dividers between them?
You can set it up such that when the user types in two digits the
cursor moves to the next field immediately (look up 'editable' and
'keyboardFocusSprite') and you can set it to respond usefully to tab
events as well.
That way you don't have to worry about entering colons, parsing, etc.
