example(s)


@
$newVar("name")
@,
@newTextInput("nameInput", "What is your name?")
@    .once()
@    .print()
@    .wait()
$    .setVar("name")

  • Creates a Var element named name and adds a text box in which to enter a name. When the return/enter key is pressed while editing the input box, it disables the box and stores its value in the Var element named name. Then it prints a text reading Hello name, where name corresponds to the value of the Var element.
