More help with functions

[sleepy]

I was asked to do some testing of AUTOIT to see if it might fit into a framework

to automate software testing. I am working with a device that needs configureations

done through a browser I/O. So I find I am doing a lot of send("{tab}") followed by sleep(200).

In some cases I may send 11 make a selection then send 15 more. I need to know how

to make a function say named tapto; in this function it expects a number to be passed

from the script. So I would do tabto 11 and expect the code to execute a tab with a sleep

11 times. While I did find function in the command instructions I can't get it to work. I did not

find help in the FAQ. I guess I am looking for more examples how and where are they created and called.

Thanks.

OH I am using V3

What are you "tab"ing to? Is it a check mark box? I have learned a lot in the last 2weeks and I have made a few changes because of it.
