Question

In TEB - require an entry, but not something specific

Is there a way to set up a TEB so that I can require someone to enter something into a text entry box (such as a name or email) without validating for specific names or email addresses?

    Hi DirectMortgage,

    Incase you are using Captivate 4, there are options available not to validate user input.

    In TEB Properties->Options tab, uncheck Validate user input check box. When you uncheck this the failure actions will be disabled.

    thanks

    Hi there

    Sure thing. What you do is actually desire a mismatch. A failure.

    You configure the TEB (Text Entry Box for those that wonder) so that the expected response is something you would never in a bazillion years expect the user to type. Perhaps GreenGoblet. You then allow a single attempt and take the desired action on a failure. The failure should always occur and you get the desired result.

    Hopefully that was helpful to you... Rick

    I tried your suggestion, but when I click the submit button associated with the TEB, the next slide appeared (desired action) without me entering anything in the text entry box. I didn't even click the TEB or anywhere in the slide except for the submit button. Any suggestions?
