Wow...now I feel really dumb for not checking for the multi-line issue...Thanks so much, that was the biggest issue I was facing!

It's always the little things....

to find out if you are simply adding a new line (which would push the number up and you won't see them anymore), click and drag in the textfield like you are selecting text. make sure you move the mouse up and see if the textfield scrolls up to reveal the missing text.

if that is the case, you are going to have to learn a bit about events and how they bubble and how you can prevent them/capture them in the way that you want.

information about events. look at the 'Other sources of information include:' just before the first property
