Getting user input for use in a script help.

[Cuervo]

Hey all,

If I can get mouse position with this,

SplashTextOn("setup", "Please Click on this thing to get it's location", 400, 100, -1, -1, 1, "Ariel", 15) 
While 1
Sleep ( 100 )
If _IsPressed("01") Then
$pos = MouseGetPos()
ExitLoop
EndIf
WEnd
SplashOff()
$incbitx = $pos[0]
$incbitly = $pos[1]
Sleep ( 1000 )

I did a search for keyboard monitoring and returning this info but could not find it.

I would like to do something similar to this but prompt the user to enter a number on the keyboard and capture that to variable. Is it possible to do such a thing?

InputBox()

Ok, thanks. Does this look correct for just returning numbers? I want to accept a numerical responce that could be single or double digits. The _IPressed wont work here.

SplashTextOn("more setup", "Please enter the number of times you want to perform this action", 400, 100, -1, -1, 1, "Ariel", 15) 
While 1
Sleep ( 100 )
$mycvar = InputBox( "Setup Continued", "Please enter that data" )
ExitLoop
Wend
SplashOff()

You might want to wrap the return value with Number() to be safe.

$mycvar = Number(InputBox( "Setup Continued", "Please enter that data" ))

$mycvar = Number(InputBox( "Setup Continued", "Please enter that data" ))

I assume the InputBox waits for the return key to be pressed before continuing. Is this correct?
