WORKAROUND NEEDED for a focus issue

-

hi,

 

i've incurred severe bug makes flash components useless need bit of control on focus management.

 

considered following situation: have:

 

- button instance named mybutton, focusenabled=false

- input textfield named mytextfield

- many other display objects like, capable of receiving focusa

- actions purposefully set stage.focus=null no object has focus

- file object named myfile

 

the problem following: mybutton has listener registered mouseevent.click (note has focusenabled=false, clicking on _not_ give focus), calls myfile.browseforsave.

now, if stage.focus null when button clicked, after file-selection popup window has been closed (either selecting file or clicking cancel), focus restored last non-null object had had it, if focus null when button clicked.

 

that is, example:

- click on mytextfield give focus

- triggers method does: stage.focus=null

- stage.focus null

- click mybutton. not change focus (ok), , opens dialog browsing file

- select file or cancel

- mytextfield has focus!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

now, writing here because have tried obvious workaround of adding line of code listeners associated select and/or cancel events after closing browsing dialog focus assigned null again.

but not work, guess because buggy assignment restore focus arbitrary value happens _after_ listeners.

 

so have no workaround issue , whole application rendered useless unless find workaround amazing bug.

i have reported bug, take years before adobe fixes , need workaround now. without workaround, can quit developing applications flash , platform, component framework useless if such issue cannot avoided.

 

does have idea how work around issue?

 

i'll attach example fla file illustrate problem (if find out how attach file).

 

i _guess_ (this guess) problem may in actionscript code of actionscript 3.0 components ship flash. source code of components installed flash , can changed, think.

i happy solution involve cracking buggy component code, if that's way....

 

 

thanks in advance

m.

i have id (primary key) set bigint in sql server. have query following: where whateverid = <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_integer" value="#url.id#"> i got invalid data type it. tried: where whateverid = <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_bigint" value="#url.id#"> i still got invalid data type it. tried: where whateverid = <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_int" value="#url.id#"> and worked. the weird thing cf_sql_int not listed being accepted: http://www.adobe.com/livedocs/coldfusion/5.0/cfml_reference/tags79.htm can explain me. > whateverid = <cfqueryparam cfsqltype="cf_sql_bigint" value="#url.id#"> what value of #url.id#? had no problems either using cf8. > weird thing cf_sql_int not listed being accepted: iirc, when pass in invalid sql type cf uses default: cf_sql_char, accepts anything. ms sql implicit convert() right type , why works.
