Question

Can anyone tell me how to implement, a split maybe? To remove commas from user input text numbers before running some if statements. I know I can restrict commas, but I’d like people to be able to use commas when imputing values. Thanks!

value_enter.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, release1);
function release1(evt:MouseEvent):void 
{
if ( Number(inputfield.text) >0 &&  Number(inputfield.text) <2600)
{
gotoAndStop(2);
}
else if ( Number(inputfield.text) >2599 &&  Number(inputfield.text) <4200)
{
gotoAndStop(3);
}

Try this:

value_enter.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, release1);
function release1(evt:MouseEvent):void 
{
    var strNum:String = String(inputfield.text).replace(/,/g, "");
    var num:Number = Number(strNum);

    if ( num > 0 &&  num <2600)
    {
        gotoAndStop(2);
    }
    else if ( num >2599 &&  num <4200)
    {
        gotoAndStop(3);
    }
}
