This was very helpful – thanks!! I’m new to flex and I have an issue/question: i can’t seem to access the .text value of my text area to then save to a DB. I see the text that I dropped there, but I can’t access it via the text property. I’m guessing this has something to do with parent/child relationship?

Thanks!

Excellent. I’d been wondering how to determine where the cursor is for a while now- I’m making a crude spell checker for Flex and what would make it less crude is to be able to check a word at a time, whenever the space or newline key is hit.

An adaptation of this makes it all possible… thanks!

Why did you separate source file from SWF file? You could rely on attribute

Do you have the source available still? Geocities reports that your site is down.

Thanks!
