So in addition to <a href="/inc/jquery.sendkeys.js" rel="nofollow"><code>jquery.sendkeys.js</code></a> you have to include <a href="/inc/bililiteRange.js" rel="nofollow"><code>bililiteRange.js</code></a>. --Danny @Jesse:

I'm doing this: $('#id').sendkeys('1234') but it is not working. Whrere did I go wrong? Thanks! Sorry bother you with this, but I’m not very good with Ajax and jQuery.

$(‘#id’).sendkeys(’1234′)

but it is not working. Whrere did I go wrong?

Thanks!

Remember, it doesn't actually simulate keypresses, it just inserts the letters into text boxes. I'd like to see what you do with this; please keep me updated! --Danny @Cristian Cortez:

I searched long and hard for a way to do that, but it looks like that is too much of a security risk. So it's not the same as the Windows SendKeys. If you find a way to make that work, please let me know! --Danny @Ryan Boylett:
