Hi,
I have designed a form with a paper-based barcode, to export the form fields into another for in a web page.
In the page, there are several radio button groups, that can be selected only using the arrow keys.
I need to have a hidden left arrow key character in a hidden field, encoded to the barcode.
Is it possible to do so?
thanks,
amin

Can you tell me how you will be scanning the Barcode? I assume that you are looking to embed a special character into the Barcode that will cause the keyboard on the scanning machine to press the left arrow key.
Out of the box you can not do this. However, most hand scanners will support the replacement of a scanned character with a special character such as the left arrow key or any number of key sequences (hardware dependant). Inside the barcode you could embed "&&L" for example, and then program the scanner to emulate the left arrow key when these characters are found instead of pushing them into the keyboard buffer.
