Problem with Flash Contact Form

[neovamsi]

Hi,
In Flash (AS3) Iam creating a contact form in that i have taken one " Submit Button" , one " Reset Button", four input text fields
" Name, Email, Subject, Message" with instance names " contact_name, contact_email, contact_subject, contact_message"

Iam very much confused about setFocus and killFocus.

In AS3, i have given

contact_name.text = "Name";
contact_email.text= "Email";
contact_subject.text = "Sub";
contact_message.text = "Message";

Now when i publish this file, bydefault the input text field shows with text
"Name, Email, Sub, Message"

Now my requirement is if i click on Name Field so the text "Name" should get disappear so that i can enter my name, after that i click on Email field
the text "Email" should get disappear at the same time i don't want to lose my Name which is entered in Name Field.

If i click in Subject text Field the text "Sub" should get disappear but not to lose the Name and Email data entered by me.

If i click in Message text Field the text "Message" should get disappear but i don't want to lose the data which was entered in remaining text fields.

Please find the attachment so that you can have an idea.
Please help me to find the solution.

Could you not do something like

function clearText(event:MouseEvent):void {
	if(contact_name.text == "Name") {
		contact_name.text = "";
	}
}
contact_name.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, clearText);
