This is not working in Firefox 3.6 on Mac OSX. Apparently DOUBLE_CLICK events do not work in Flex with Firefox 3.6 : http://bugs.adobe.com/jira/browse/FP-3751

Ok I found the bug!!! When you set the wmode to ‘opaque’ the keyboard doesnt work properly. Woa, is it normal?

Tom,

It shouldn’t be. Can you please file a bug at http://bugs.adobe.com/flex/ and include a simple test case showing the behavior. Somebody on the Flex SDK QA team can look into it.

Hi peterd, yes I restrict only number. But I have the same problem with a TextInput w/o any restrict. I have noticed I have this problem on some other flex applications, should be a local setting compiler or something like that?

Tom,

Is the restrict property set?

Quick question, I have built the same application with a basic textinput but on my laptop I cant type number and the ‘%’ char. But on this example I can.

So what are the differences???

Hi,

when you doubleclick you will select a whole word. To remove the selection, add the following befor the closing brace of the function:

ti.setSelection(0,0);
This will select nothing.
