I would like to display a "CountDown Timer" In
an HTML page (W2K/IE6/Kix4.02). I am trying to
do this withe the following code patched
together from this site. (I thank all whom
contributed).. I can not get the time to update.
What have I done wrong?
code:
$password2 = "test"
$maxtime = 15
$timeout = 0
$Ipass = HTMLInputBox("Enter Override Password:","System Shutdown","","Enter","Shutdown Now")
? "Ipass= " $Ipass
exit
;HTML Input Box:
; SYNTAX:
; HTMLInputBox("HTML Message", OPTIONAL "Window Title", OPTIONAL "Default Value",OPTIONAL "Button Text", OPTIONAL "Alt Button Text", OPTIONAL "Alt Button Return Value")
;
; PARAMETERS:
; HTML Message: The message for the Input Box. ex: What is your favorite color? Note: This can accept any HTML code, so go to town! Also Note: the <b> tag is enabled, so if you want to do custom HTML, put </b> as the first tag.
; Window Title: ( OPTIONAL ) The title of the HTML Input Box Window. If blank, defaults to "Question...".
; Default Value: ( OPTIONAL ) The default value for the box which will show when the box appears. If blank, defaults to blank.
; Button Text: ( OPTIONAL ) The text on the main button. If blank, default is "SUBMIT".
; Alt Button Text: ( OPTIONAL ) If this is specified, an alternate button will appear on the form and if clicked, the function will (by default) return "-1". This is useful as a "HELP" button, or for many other purposes.
; Alt Button Return Value: ( OPTIONAL ) If the Alt button is needed, and -1 is a potential legitimate return value for the main submit button, you can specify an alternate return value for the alternate button.
; RETURNS:
; The string in the text box, or another value if the "Alternate button" is pressed. The alternate value defaults to -1, but can be changed by specifying the "Alt Button Return Value".
;
; EXAMPLE: HTMLInputBox("Enter Override Password:","System Shutdown","","Enter","Shutdown Now")

This is cool...
I'd make it a bit more 'generic' in function, but this rocks.
It has much more functionality than the XLSInput box that I have been using.
Great job!!

Could you look at this and see where it is failing... It just blows right through it. The buttons and such appear, but it doesn't wait for the user to type/click
code:
Function IEInputBox($window, Optional $prompt, optional $Ok, optional $Cancel)
Dim $click, $html
If not $prompt $prompt = "Please enter your password." endif
If not $ok $ok = "OK" endif
If not $Cancel $cancel = "Cancel" endif
$html = '
<html><head><style>
<!---body{ background-color: silver; color: black;font-family: tahoma, arial; font-size:
10pt; margin: 3px "input.tbox { border: lpx black solid;}td { font: 10pt tahoma; }--->
</style></head>
<body scroll=no >
<table align=center>
<form name=frm>
<tr>
<td align=right>$prompt </td>
<td colspan=2><input id=password1 type=password value="" class=tbox></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><input id=ok type=button value=" $ok " onclick="frm.status.value=1">
<input type=hidden id=status name=status value=0></td>
<td align=right><input id=cancel type=button value=" $Cancel "
onclick="frm.status.value=2"></td>
</tr>
</form>
</table></body></html>'
$window.document.write('$html')
WHILE $window.busy <> 0 AND @ERROR = 0 LOOP
$=setfocus($window.title+" - Microsoft Internet Explorer")
$window.GetElementById("password1").focus
$status = $window.GetElementById("status")
$click = $window.GetElementById("password1")
while @error = 0 and $status.value = ""
select
case $status.value = "1" ;Ok was clicked
$IEInputBox = $password1.value
case $status.value = "2" ;cancel was clicked
$IEInputBox = "Cancel"
endselect
loop
$window.quit
$window=""
EndFunction

Hey Rad... you're not shooting blanks are you? ![[Wink]](images/icons/wink.gif)
Shawn,
I take that back, you're going to make 3,000 before July unless you slow down.
Shawn, could you explain in further detail what is wrong with the method Radimus is using?

that almost defeats the point of the library of subs... if each sub has to duplicate the function of another.

here is my current IE lib. needless to say most of it doesn't work, the windows get created and get populated, but the event handling, the focus, and such do not work. Most of these functions do not work at all (work in progress) and the rest do not work correctly.
My concept is to create a 'gui' console using IE, and when necessary for user input\popup messages use IE comboboxes, input fields, etc. HTML can 'simulate' many of the functions and appearance of kixforms/kixgui windows, yet doesn't require an extra dll to be distributed.
code:
break on
;$=setconsole("minimize")
$Window = IECreateWindow("This Damn Thing",300,300,640,480)
IEWrite($Window,"hello","Arial","4","#00ff00")
IEWrite($Window,"hello1",,"2","#ff0000")
IEWrite($Window,"hello2","Courier","5","#0000ff")
IEWrite($Window,"hello3")
$b1=IEAddButton($Window,"Button1",10,0,50,25)
$b2=IEAddButton($Window,"Button2",70,0,50,25)
$b3=IEAddButton($Window,"Button3",130,0,50,25)
? IEInputBox("What is your name?", "Enter your name")
?"pause..." get$k

Rad & Shawn,
I like where you guys are going with this. You
are deffinately on to something GOOD! It will
make code generation in the future a lot easier.
Unfortunately, I'm under the gun to get something
working out the door. For, now I'll use the code
I have and watch this grow... I'll jump back in
when I can (at the rate you guys are going, it
will be a full fledged function lib. by then).
Keep up the GREAT work & Thanks, Dana

I suppose that function IEinputbox, could call to the IEcreateWindow funct... That may seem more logically consistent than creating a window to append a combobox or whatever into it.

slightly modified Updated the funct lib above...
The $status = $window.GetElementById("status")
$click = $window.GetElementById("input")
? "$status $status.value @serror"
$status isn't getting data...
