Does anyone know if it's possible to restrict hard returns in text input fields
(fields must wrap)?
I have form fields to capture user input that I'm sending up to the server
to be stored in a database. When I request this stored data from the server,
anything after a hard return is lost.
I've tried something like this:
my_txt.restrict="^\u0013", and a bunch of variations thereof, but nothing
seems to keep the Enter key from doing it's thing.
Second best would be to traverse through a string a user has entered and
replace hard returns with a space or dash, but again I've had no luck looking
for \n or \r. I've tried entering text and hard returns into a dynamic
textfield set to input, but when I try this:
var n:Number = my_txt.indexOf("\n")...
trace("n: "+n) //traces "n: -1"
Anyone have any insight into this?
Thanks,
John
