flash - One focus event listener for all input text field in ActionScript? -

i finished of andreas. add more code default text value of targeted text field. helps me set text of targeted field default when focus out. "andreas".

import flash.events.focusevent; import flash.text.textfield;  input1.addeventlistener(focusevent.focus_in,inhand); input1.addeventlistener(focusevent.focus_out,outhand); //add other text input references did below... input2.addeventlistener(focusevent.focus_in, inhand); input2.addeventlistener(focusevent.focus_out, outhand);  var def1:string = input1.text; var def2:string = input2.text;  function inhand(evt:focusevent):void { var textfield:textfield = textfield(evt.target); textfield.text = ""; }  function outhand(evt:focusevent):void { var textfield:textfield = textfield(evt.target); if(textfield.text == "") {     switch(textfield.name)     {         case "input1":             textfield.text = def1;         break;          case "input2":             textfield.text = def2;         break;          default:         break;     }    } } 

yes, referring displayobject provided in focusevent, can obtain reference hovered object. allows create generic references object being hovered, allowing place on many textfields want.

import flash.events.focusevent; import flash.text.textfield;  input1.addeventlistener(focusevent.focus_in,inhand); input1.addeventlistener(focusevent.focus_out,outhand); //add other text input references did below... input2.addeventlistener(focusevent.focus_in, inhand); input2.addeventlistener(focusevent.focus_out, outhand);  var def1:string = "your text value here";  function inhand(evt:focusevent):void {     var textfield:textfield = textfield(evt.target);     textfield.text = ""; }  function outhand(evt:focusevent):void {     var textfield:textfield = textfield(evt.target);     if(textfield.text == "")     {         textfield.text = def1;     } }
