sendKeys

sendKeys (keystring)

Sends keys to the current session. Unlike sendCommand this function does not require the current input field to be empty nor does it append an Enter; this allows you to execute non-text commands such as cursor movement and erase functions.

Parameter:

keystring - String of the keys.

Returns:

This function does not return a value.
