Keyboard input
var phoneTxt:TextField = new TextField();
var nameTxt:TextField = new TextField();
phoneTxt.type = TextFieldType.INPUT;
phoneTxt.addEventListener(FocusEvent.FOCUS_IN, focusInHandler);
phoneTxt.addEventListener(FocusEvent.FOCUS_OUT, focusOutHandler);
phoneTxt.restrict = "0-9";
phoneTxt.width = 100;
phoneTxt.height = 18;
phoneTxt.background = true;
phoneTxt.border = true;
addChild(phoneTxt);
nameField.type = TextFieldType.INPUT;
nameField.x = 120;
nameField.width = 100;

function focusInHandler(event:FocusEvent):void
{
if (Capabilities.hasIME)
{
IME.enabled = false;
}
}
function focusOutHandler(event:FocusEvent):void

}
}
This example creates two input text fields, phoneTxt and nameTxt, and then adds two event listeners to the phoneTxt
text field. When the user sets focus to the phoneTxt text field, a FocusEvent.FOCUS_IN event is dispatched and the
IME is disabled. When the phoneTxt text field loses focus, the FocusEvent.FOCUS_OUT event is dispatched to reenable
the IME.
Listening for IME composition events
Flash Player 9 and later, Adobe AIR 1.0 and later
IME composition events are dispatched when a composition string is being set. For example, if the user has their IME
enabled and active and types a string in Japanese, the IMEEvent.IME_COMPOSITION event would dispatch as soon as
the user selects the composition string. In order to listen for the IMEEvent.IME_COMPOSITION event, you need to add
an event listener to the static ime property in the System class
(flash.system.System.ime.addEventListener(...)), as shown in the following example:
