[Glade-users] blocking some input in entry field

[ashats at hotmail.com (Arthur Shats)]

Thanks John.
Using GtkSpinButton is not going to work for me (my field takes in IP address, not just plain numbers), but 
I'll try the link that you mentioned.
 
I am doing the code in Python and use GladeX to generate python code from Glade xml, so my _insert_handler 
looks like this:
 
def on_myField_insert_text(widget, data, wtree) :
   print "in insert_text"
   pass

But when I execute, I get error:
 
TypeError: <lambda>() takes at most 2 arguments (4 given)

Maybe GladeX has a bug and it generated the function incorrectly, so do you know what kind of arguments 
_insert_text should have?
Thanks.
