Your description is not entirely true “Both work for Textareas and Inputs”. In Firefox your code does work for both textareas and inputs. However, it does not work successfully for Inputs in IE6 and IE7.

If you use an input box in IE the text you are inserting pre-appends the whole phrase.

I am writing a search program which has buttons to insert boolean operators into a text input. (it was going to be a deprecated feature, but 30% of the users claim to find it helpful) If anyone knows a a fix for this I would be grateful to find out.

Assumedly the technology is confidential, but can you discuss some of the techniques used?

I’m working with Flash 8 for nearly 1 year. I could understand the AS2 but to the AS3 I’m a newbie. Tried your code but it shows this,

“1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: SpectrumAnalyzer.”

Could you give a solution

Thanks

goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood

Function.prototype.defaults = function()
{
var _f = this;
var _a = Array(_f.length-arguments.length).concat(
Array.prototype.slice.apply(arguments));
return function()
{
return _f.apply(this, Array.prototype.slice.apply(arguments).concat(
_a.slice(arguments.length, _a.length)));
}
}

Or did I get it wrong? Anyhow, give it a testspin and get back to me.

Damn I’m hungry, need food for brain. (I only change the “this” argument in the apply on the inner function)
