Fields and attributes

The wizard uses fields in order to display information to the user and to give the user the option to enter information. Each field corresponds to an internal variable.

The wizard defines a field by specifying the appropriate key word, followed by an internal variable on the same line. Additional lines that follow can optionally contain the attributes for the field.

An example of a field definition in the wizard:

 selection_buttons select_inet
  description   str.inet_Selection
  button_text   str.inet_PPPoE, str.inet_IPoE

This field generates a group of radio buttons, only one of which can be activated by the user. The wizard places the text defined in the string table str.inet_Selection as a description next to the field. For the radio buttons themselves, the wizard displays the text under str.inet_PPPoE and str.inet_IPoE. After an option was selected by the user, the wizard writes the selected value to the internal variable wizard.select_inet.
