title: How to clear a text input on focus but still be able to type? Flash/AS2
body: <p>I am trying to create a user input in an SWF and I want to clear the default text on focus but still allow the user to type into the input.</p>
  
  <p>Currently I am using the following AS2 code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>input.zip.onSetFocus = function() {
      input.zip.text = "";
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>This clears the text as expected, but once the text is cleared, I cannot type anything into the input. If I remove the code, I can type in the input just fine.</p>
  
  <p>Any ideas? Thanks!</p>
