Hi,

can anyone see why this doesn’t work? The password\_txt textField doesn’t become visible with the function but trace works.

stop();  
this.createTextField(“username\_txt”, this.getNextHighestDepth(), 450, 235, 120, 20);

focusManager.defaultPushButton = login\_btn;  
username\_txt.setFocus();  
username\_txt.border = true;  
username\_txt.type = “input”;  
username\_txt.setFocus();  
username\_txt.maxChars = 15;

username\_txt.onChanged = function():Void {  
if (username\_txt.text == “Pucci”) {  
this.createTextField(“password\_txt”, this.getNextHighestDepth(), 450, 265, 120, 20);  
this.password\_txt.password = true;  
this.password\_txt.border = true;  
this.password\_txt.visible = true;  
this.password\_txt.type = “input”;  
trace("Text within the comments field = "+username\_txt.text);  
}  
};
