Good day everybody.
I am realy very new to xbmc and need some help.
What I would like to do is:
1. pop a window up. (I have a small idea how to add a new button...)
2. fill in some info and then write the answers out to a file.
Can anybody give me some help?
Thank you kindly

if the goal is to write some data to a file, you will have to create a script.
this can't be done by simple skinning.
Thanx Ronie.
I have written (a UNIX) script that does everything I want to do, but I need to get the information from USER INPUT. Thus:
what I would like to do is in a SCREEN:
+-----------------------+
| ITEM 1: <USER INPUT> |
| ITEM 2: <USER INPUT> |
| ITEM 3: <USER INPUT> |
| ITEM 4: <USER INPUT> |
| ITEM 5: <USER INPUT> |
| ITEM 6: <USER INPUT> |
+-----------------------+
then write to a file the strings that the <USER INPUT> generate. I will then, from my script I will manipulate the file...
I hope you can help
Kind regards

Hi Ronie,
Thankx for the reply, I have the entire .PY scripts ready, could you give me a pointer to how to incorporate it into a screen?
Cheers and thanx again!
sure, just add a button to launch the script:
Code:
<control type="button" id="501">
<posx>250</posx>
<posy>0</posy>
<width>40</width>
<height>40</height>
<label>-</label>
<font>-</font>
<texturenofocus>image-nofocus.png</texturenofocus>
<texturefocus>image-focus.png</texturefocus>
<onclick>RunScript(special://home/scripts/Your_Script/default.py)</onclick>
<onleft>500</onleft>
<onright>502</onright>
<onup>501</onup>
<ondown>501</ondown>
</control>
Ronie
