Check for swear words

Hello,

I will very much appreciate any help or suggestions. I’m creating a little interactive art game in Flash MX 2004 that is based on the old ZORK type interactive text only games, although mine has visual content as well. I’ve got the script working as far as sending the user to my chosen frames when a reply is typed and the enter key is pressed, but I’m having trouble with my “curse words” feature. What is want is that when the user types a swear word and hits Enter, they will go to the “swear” frame where they are scolded and sent back to the beginning of the game.

I can guess the most likely swear words to be typed, but I’m not sure how to write the script to make Flash watch the input field (variable name is reply) and know when one of the target words is typed, and then send the user to my “swear” frame. This functionality needs to be on just about every frame.

Sample script or simple advice on how to figure this out very welcome!
Thanks,
MaryW
