Inputbox not getting input

[kevinward13 0]

After my first script in which water helped a great deal...thanks water! I decided to try and expand my knowledge and write a script that will further enahnce the one previous. this time i am attempting to make it look pretty. so here goes.

Global $uName, $uPass, $uServer

Getlogin()
;RemedyLogin()


Func GetLogin()
    Local $IUserName, $msg, $Sub_Button, $No_Sub    
        
    GUICreate("Enter Username...", 250, 80)
    GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
    $IUserName = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 70, 10, 170, 20)
    $Sub_Button = GUICtrlCreateButton("Submit", 55, 50, 100)
    $No_Sub = GUICtrlCreateButton("Cancel", 190, 50, 50)
    GUICtrlCreateLabel("Username:", 10, 10)
    GUISetState()
    
    While 1
        $msg = GUIGetMsg()
        Select
            Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
                ExitLoop
            Case $msg = $Sub_Button
                $uName = $IUserName
                MsgBox(0, 'Testing', $uName)
            Case $msg = $No_Sub
                ExitLoop
        EndSelect
    WEnd

EndFunc

Works sort of. I get the nice pop up window and the buttons work, however I have been trying to get the local variable in the function to be set to a global one so i can use it in another function.

Right now it returns "3"

What am i doin wrong?

you need to GuiCtrlRead your $IUserName when the submit button is clicked, that will "read" the contents of the input

You read out the control id not its value!

Try this line instead:

$uName = GUICtrlRead($IUserName)
