sounds nice.
don't remember anymore the coding hazards I faced last night.
but this your example:
sellength=len($$textbox.text)
mmm...
why not use:
sellength = -1 [Wink]

yeah.
now I remember.
I was crying two hours with my user creation script because of the change in event handling of kixforms.
before I could check for change in textbox and update fields realtime.
but now, I can't see events like onchange or onloosefocus.

I'll not update this version yet to support build 12 because I want it to be online asap.

so... I'm going for some bugtracing, see ya later...
