FB beta 3 form issue - bug

Question

FB beta 3 form issue - required fields remain with red border
When a form is submitted the erroring formitem remains with a
red border!
I am using the following validation function.
private function valStep7():void {
if (r_username.text.length == 0){
r_username.errorString = "Please enter a valid username";
focusManager.setFocus(r_username);
}else if(r_givenname.text.length == 0){
r_givenname.errorString = "Please enter a valid given
name!";
focusManager.setFocus(r_givenname);
}else if(r_surname.text.length == 0){
r_surname.errorString = "Please enter a valid surname!";
focusManager.setFocus(r_surname);r_address
}else if(r_address.text.length == 0){
r_address.errorString = "Please enter a vaild address!";
focusManager.setFocus(r_address);
}else if(r_suburb.text.length == 0){
r_suburb.errorString = "Please enter a valid suburb!";
focusManager.setFocus(r_suburb);
}else if(r_findus.selectedItem.record_id == 0){
focusManager.setFocus(r_findus);
Alert.show('Please select how you found out about us!');
//+'\n'
}else{
usernameService.checkFinalUsername.send();
is there an easy way to remedy this or has someone had a
similar issue?
the text input controls look like this....etc.
<mx:FormItem label="First name" styleName="formlabels"
required="true">
<mx:HBox width="100%" height="100%"
verticalAlign="bottom">
<mx:TextInput id="r_givenname" width="180" text=""
color="#000000" />
</mx:HBox>
</mx:FormItem>
Any help appreciated...

Hi Chris,
This is just a quick guess, but -- I think you may need to
clear the errorString once the form item has been updated to
contain a valid value.
