AS3 - Allow Forward Slash In Input Text?

I'm trying to allow forward slashes to be entered in my input text field through this code:

myInputField.restrict = "A-Za-z.\\-\\/";

The above text field should allow uppe开发者_如何学JAVAr case letters, lower case letters, periods, hyphens and forward slashes. However, I can't seem to permit the forward slash.

I just pasted your code and it works as intended. I can write forward slashes without problem. Have you checked if the glyph is embedded? (in case you're embedding fonts, that is).

I'd write your code like this, though:

myInputField.restrict = "A-z.\\-/";

Since you don't need to escape forward slashes.

You shouldn't have to escape the forward slash. Only - ^ and \.
