This has a problem: what if you have multiple text boxes?

Solution:

Use the text input component:

searchBox.addEventListener(Com­ponentEvent.ENTER, clickGoButton);

function clickGoButton(e:ComponentEvent­){

myBtn.dispatchEvent(new MouseEvent(MouseEvent.CLICK));

}

Sorry, but if they press ENTER i suppose they want to go to a new line in the big contact form don't you think??

Great tutorial Adam, we really like 'em!

[flashbuilding]

good point. This would be more for chat boxes, logins, etc... I use it on my site chatbox and login areas, people appreciate the functionality...

[lucas199400]

Aha! I didn't think of chats and logins yet!

Indeed, that would work VERRY well on those type of things, excuse me for my small brains :D
