This function assigns a new value to a field. It can be used with both output fields and input elements to automate and simulate user input. For example, clicking a button on the screen may trigger an option number to be entered into an input field and the enter key to be pressed automatically.  This function is identical to pui.set().

Parameters:

  • id – element identifier

  • value – new value to assign

Example:

changeElementValue("TextBox1", "IT Manager"); // places IT Manager in textbox with id: TextBox1 changeElementValue("TextBox1", ""); // clear textbox
