I have an applet which contains text fields that need validation on
event focusLost. Everything works perfect until I try to to the
JTextField.requestFocus at which time the Dialog box displays 3 or 4
times and then no longer allows you to edit any text fields.
I don't understand why this is hapenning.
Here is the code I'm using to handle the focusLost event:
public void focusLost(java.awt.event.FocusEvent e) {
if (e.isTemporary()) {
return;
}
javax.swing.JTextField textField =
(javax.swing.JTextField)e.getSource();
String content = textField.getText();
if (content.length() != 0) {
try {
Integer.parseInt(content);
} catch (NumberFormatException nfe) {
getToolkit().beep();
javax.swing.JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,
"Invalid Character Entered!\nPlease
enter whole positive numbers only!\nNo alpha characters allowed,
including '#$.([{)]}' ",
"Integer Field Error",
javax.swing.JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
textField.requestFocus();
}
}
}
});
