Name

javax.microedition.lcdui.TextField

Synopsis

This class, which extends the Item class, is an editable text component that may be placed into a form. A TextField object has a label, a default string, a maximum size, and some constraints. The constraints, which are shared with TextBox, are:

ANY

The user is allowed to enter any text.

EMAILADDR

The user is allowed to enter an email address.

NUMERIC

The user is allowed to enter only an integer value.

PASSWORD

The text entered must be masked (replaced with `*'), so that the characters typed are not visible.

PHONENUMBER

The user is allowed to enter a phone number.

URL

The user is allowed to enter a URL.
