maximum number in an input text box

[moozy]

Hello I am new.

Could anyone tell me how to limit the maximum number you could put in an input textbox?
I want the maximum to be 10 and the minimum to be 0.

Thank you in advance

This is how I would go about it in AS2. You should be able to adapt it easily enough:

theText.maxChars = 2;
theText.restrict = "0-9";
theText.onChanged = function () {
if (Number(theText.text) > 10) {
theText.text = "";
}
}
Because you've restricted the input to numbers (i.e. the user can't input -) there's no need to check for a minimum value.

thank you! I will have a play, it seems to be the onChanged that the error compiler is picking up on

sorted it, thanks very much! I used

myTextField.maxChars = 2;
myTextField.restrict = "0-9";
myTextField.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, none);

function none(e:Event):void
{
if (Number(myTextField.text) > 10) {
myTextField.text = "";
}
}
