Make msgbox show input box's text

[FinalVersion]

This is what I have.

#include <ButtonConstants.au3>
#include <EditConstants.au3>
#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>
#include <WindowsConstants.au3>

$Form1 = GUICreate("Form1", 174, 61, 193, 147)
$Input1 = GUICtrlCreateInput("Input1", 8, 16, 145, 21)
$Button1 = GUICtrlCreateButton("Button1", 32, 40, 89, 17, 0)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $Msg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
        Case  $msg = $Button1
            MsgBox(0, "Test", $Input1)
    EndSwitch
WEnd

And all the msgbox shows is 3, and i don't even have to push the button, the msg box just keeps popping.

Please read the helpfile better or search the forums... It says to use GUICtrlRead!

I can't use my helpfile imo.

Not really that hard. You wanted to get the value of the input, so that should have been the first place you looked- GUICtrlCreateInput. Under the remarks heading is the first easy answer.

To obtain the value of the control see GUICtrlRead.

Obviously you are correct in your assumption.

But I can't check any remarks or anything like that, My helpfile just does Not work. Edited April 24, 2009 by Godly

Well what happens when you try to open the helpfile? Nothing? Error?

Can you open other help files like AutoIt's?
