of detecting when the position of the caret moves – i.e. the user uses
the mouse to put it somewhere else in the text – I can’t seem to
find a change event for that. It works fine if you’re typing away, hit
the special button to add your char, then carry on typing, but doing later
might be troublesome…</span></p>

special characters in about 14 languages, with a combo for language, then
buttons for each char, so I can probably put all the code in that SWF and
register that as the Selection listener rather than use rootIcon – if I
have to use onEnterFrame to poll, at least then I can turn it on and off as
focus shifts from input text fields to other objects and back again, and only
poll while an input field has the focus, </span></p>
