UI text box

This command is a UI Command. This command creates a field in the UI portion at the top of the browser.

Label: refers to the label for the text box as it appears on the interface.

Corresponding Variable: refers to the name for the variable that will correspond to the UI text box. It can be inserted into a type text command to fill a field.

Example 1

navigate("bing.com", "Wait")
wait(3)
ui text box("My Keyword:", #keyword)
type text(<name="q">, #keyword, "Standard")

Typing a keyword into the UI text box on the UI and running the command will fill the field on the webpage with the keyword typed into the UI text box.

Example 2

Use the text length function to limit the amount of characters required for a field.

For example:

ui text box("mytext", #mytext)
if($comparison($text length(#mytext), ">", 10)) {
    then {
        alert("Please enter 10 characters or less")
    }
    else {
        navigate("google.com", "Wait")
    }
} 

The following example will generate am alert to the end user if the length of the provided text in the UI is longer than required.

Example 3

Avoid a using the alert command at all. Only pull 10 characters from the user's input to stay within requirements for a website:

ui text box("mytext", #mytext)
if($comparison($text length(#mytext), ">", 10)) {
then {
alert($substring(#mytext, 0, 10))
}
else {
alert(#mytext)
}
}

If the user inputs text longer than 10 characters, the script will only pull 10 characters from the input.
