text_input fails

Katana24Katana24
edited March 2020 in OSWeb

Good evening,

I'm attempting to create a date of birth field but each time I use the text_input widget, either using the OpenSesame code or Python it fails; either just not displaying or throwing the following error:

Uncaught ReferenceError: pixi is not defined, See the console for further details

This error above is thrown using the code created in the form_text_input item. E.g.

# Start
set timeout infinite
set spacing 10
set rows "1;1;6"
set only_render no
set margins "50;50;50;50"
set form_var response
set form_title Title
set form_question "Your question"
set description "A simple text input form"
set cols 1
set _theme gray
widget 0 0 1 1 label text="[form_title]"
widget 0 1 1 1 label center=no text="[form_question]"
widget 0 2 1 1 text_input focus=yes return_accepts=yes stub="" var="[form_var]"
# End


P.S. Is there a code tag I can use to format this?


Thanks

    Hi Katana,

    The error message suggests that you're trying to run the experiment in OSWeb, which does not support form items. You can find an overview of supported functionality here:

    P.S. Is there a code tag I can use to format this?

    Yes, you can use the paragraph icon on the left of the text!

    Cheers,

    Sebastiaan

    Cheers Sebastiaan - I'll give that a go now.

    So OsWeb doesn't support form items so if I want to create a form that accepts a date of birth (month, date & year) what's the process? I dragged in a new inline_python_script and pasted in the code from this page https://osdoc.cogsci.nl/3.2/manual/forms/about/:

    # Create a form
form = Form(
    cols=[1,1], rows=[1,2,1],
    margins=(50,100,50,100), spacing=25
)
# Create four widgets
labelTitle = Label(text=u'Question')
labelQuestion = Label(
    text=u'A bat and a baseball together cost $1.10. The bat costs one dollar more than the ball. How much does the ball cost?',
    center=False
)
button5cts = Button(text=u'$0.05')
button10cts = Button(text=u'$0.10')

# Add the widgets to the form. The position in the form is indicated as a
# (column, row) tuple.
form.set_widget(labelTitle, (0,0), colspan=2)
form.set_widget(labelQuestion, (0,1), colspan=2)
form.set_widget(button5cts, (0,2))
form.set_widget(button10cts, (1,2))

# Execute the form! In this case, the form will return the text of the button that
# was clicked. This is one way to get a return value out of the form. Another way
# is to use the 'var' keyword, supported some of the widgets.
button_clicked = form._exec()

    So what am I doing wrong here? This just displays a blank screen.

    You're still using functionality that is not supported, in this case an inline_script .

    You cannot use forms in OSWeb, also not through scripting. However, in many cases you can emulate form-like behavior using a combination of a sketchpad and a mouse_response . Not very convenient, but possible!
