[flexcoders] Flex 2.0 Form validation

[Ken Bromberger]

Hi! I am new to flex and I am working on using the
validators flex 2.0 includes.

 

I have set up a form and can submit data to my test database
using HTTPService and the request tags and return a result. When I add a string
validator to my code the form no longer submits the HTTPService request. If I remove
the stringValidator from my code the form works just fine. What am I missing on
this?? Is there a good resource with examples of how to implement validation? 

Thanks! – Ken

 

Here is my code:

 



 xmlns:mx="http://www.macromedia.com/2005/mxml" xmlns="*">

 



   




 

 id="strV" source="{test1}" property="text" minLength="5"
valid="handleValid(event)" invalid="handleValid(event)"/>

 

   id="test" url="">http://localhost/xml/template/test.xml" method="POST" showBusyCursor="True">

     xmlns="">

  {test1.text}

  {test2.text}

       

  

 

   width="100%" height="100%">

     x="34" y="25">

     text="{test.result.root.tblTest.success}"/>

   label="Test Form"/>

   label="Test 1" id="test1_lbl">

     id="test1"/>  

  

   label="Test 2" id="test2_lbl">

     id="test2"/>

  

 

     label="Submit" id="sub_btn"
click="submitForm();" enabled="false"/>

Hi Simon, 

Thanks for the attempt on this, but it still does not trigger the
HTTPService. Any other ideas?

Try this...



http://www.macromedia.com/2005/mxml"; 
xmlns="*">

 







 



 

  http://localhost/xml/template/test.xml"; method="POST" 
showBusyCursor="True">



  {test1.text}

  {test2.text}

   

  

 

  





  

  

  

  

  



  

   

  

  



What i have done here is when the change event is fired on the text1 
TextInput the handleValid function is called. This checks to see if 
the string is valid.

Let me know if this works,

Simon Barber
