Hi for those of you who are creating forms in flash I recommend you download stringUtils.as library from  
[http://www.markme.com/](http://www.markme.com/)  
But you will need to change the rtrim() to below to fix a small bug

```auto

String.prototype.rtrim = function()
{
	var size = this.length;
	for(var i = size; i > 0; i--)
	{
		if(this.charCodeAt(i-1) > 32)
		{
			return this.substring(0, i);
		}
	}
	return "";
}

```
