The six display lines of the 4620 associated with feature buttons are all ava ilable for input
elements. The top line of the display cannot be used for input.
The input tag causes an automatic line break before and after input text.
Only 1 input tag can exist per display line.
When a user views a page with the input tag specified, the first thing that shows up in the top line
is the card title, if specified. When the user scrolls to the first line contain ing input, the top line
shows the input box title if specified, otherwise the card title is show n. The top line displays the
card title for all non-input text.
When the input box is selected, a vertical line (the "cursor") app ears at the left side of the input
box.
The attribute type password should only be used when it is important to not display the user’ s
password on the screen. Asterisks will be displayed instead. It is al so important that the password
not be cached.
The phrase [enter text here] appears for all input tags if the value attribute is nu ll. If the author
specifies a non-null content in the value attribute, that content displa ys between brackets for that
input tag.
Only the correct size, type, and number of characters are accepted in to the i nput box. For
example, if alpha text is specified and the user types in a symbol or numeric text, the user inp ut is
not accepted. The screen repaints and the user has to re-enter their input. If the wrong kind of text
is typed, the user receives an error tone. If the “n” (number) value is specified an d the user types in
the incorrect number of characters, their input will not be accepted.
