Hi sujith..sorry for not being around quite some time

attached a sample...there may be some other way around also..but this seems very easy...u need flash cs3...and some knowledge of as3 ...and if u got the idea, u can implement it in as2 also...a lil large process involved..i'm lazy


  input text effect.fla (Size: 24 KB / Downloads: 5)

there is the text field...(_txt)
there is an mc in background of that..(_mc)
add a listener to play the movieclip when clicked on input textbox

_txt.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, blink);
function blink(event:MouseEvent):void {
_mc.play();
}

put stop(); s where ever necessary
