Hi Mike, you can enter text with a button like this:
<$button set="$:/myvar" setTo={{$:/temp/var}}>press to enter</$button>
<$edit-text tiddler="$:/temp/var" tag="input" type="text"/>
---
<$text text={{$:/myvar}}>
The text widget is very easy to understand - if you look at the source, you
could probably start by adding some javascript to the render function.
Cheers
BJ
