I do not understand what you mean by "isTemporary()".  What object are 
you calling this method on?

It sounds like you are trying to verify the contents of a field when 
the user "leaves" the field.  In that case, you might want to look at 
the InputVerifier class that was added to Java 1.3.  I have heard that 
there are some problems with it, but it is designed for this purpose, 
and it has support for not running the input verifier when you lose 
focus to certain components like a "Cancel" button.  I do not know if 
you will be able to get that behavior with a menu item, though.
