>>>Hi everybody,

>>>I haven't yet researched this question. I am just wondering if it's possible to use a browser form and a swipe reader to enter a swipe? I suppose not or it should be some special control, not just the input text.

>>>Wondering what others use?
>>>
>>>I did a bit more reading on this topic and I think the currently active input text should accept the swipe just fine.
>>>
>>>I don't have the swipe reader myself, so I cannot test. My colleague told me the form is not working. I'll work with her tomorrow to find out what the problem is.

>>You can use a swipe reader. That is just another input device.

>In other words, nothing needs to be done for the form itself, right? I use a simple modal form with an input type="text". My colleague said she is having some troubles, so I'm going to see today with her.

Read the docs for the plugin:
It intercepts keypress events and takes over if '%B' is detected. You can hook to its success.cardswipe to obtain the value (also other events 'failure' etc.)
