>          Components: Validators
>    Affects Versions: Adobe Flex SDK 3.2 (Release)
>         Environment: Affected OS(s): All OS Platforms
> Language Found: English
>            Reporter: Adobe JIRA

> Steps to reproduce:
> 1. Using the attached application, if you enter in a number like 1234567879123400000000000000 into the textinput, you will get a validation error. This is because the scientific notation that is outputted from the NumberFormatter class isn't able to be handled from by the NumberValidator class.
> 2.Even if you create an instance of a Number using this value, it will fail as well as the NumberValidator will convert the Number into a string (by calling the toString() method on the Number class which will return the number in scientific notation as well). 
>  
>  Actual Results:
>  
> The NumberValidator states that the value contains invalid characters.
>  
>  Expected Results:
>  
> I expected the NumberValidator to be able to handle the output from the NumberFormatter class as well as the toString() method of the Number class. 
>  Workaround (if any):
>  
> None without extending the NumberValidator class to add support for scientific notation.
