Hi guys,

is there any chance to make a widget for an input field for text or numbers?

The further handling in the js-file is the next step. But I am thinking since a few days, how to  transfer the value to the code.

For example: in the button widget there is called a function on click.
     function button_events()
     {
       $('.button').on("click", function(event) {....

Is there something similiar, hat gives back the value of an input field?

Any hints or ideas are appreciated....

I also made some attempts with a dashboard-textfield, inserting in the html-code something like this:

<form action="input_text.htm">
  <p>Input-Field:<br><input name="inVal_01" size="30" maxlength="30" type="text"></p>
</form>
As a result I get a textbox, where I can type in a text, but I really have no idea how to work with this input.
Maybe that this idea is a dead end :-(
