Populate Text Field on Web Page - How to Include a Return Character?

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Ukiman1014

I'd like it to enter text into a field and include Return.  Actually, the text will be a variable and I'd like to have it enter it, adding a return character at the end.  It is a search field, so pressing return performs the search (there isn't a button to click to perform the search).

    You can try adding a send keys action after the populate happens and see if that works! Make sure the "unfocused text box after filling it" is toggled off so the cursor stays in the text box.

     

    Good luck! Let me know if that worked!
