I am getting started on writing a POS application. I intend to use PHP, JS, CSS, HTML5, etc ... so that it can be deployed online at a very minimal cost.
I am working on what would be the keyboard on the touch screen. This is a mapped image. I intend to or figure that by mapping the image, I can place a trigger behind each key. So, imagine a text box and a mapped image, the image is up and the user touches any key on the keyboard (a-z, 0-9, back space, RETURN, space bar, etc); I am looking for a way to emulate the pushing of chosen key on an actual keyboard.
How can I push a key using javascript?
If I cannot push a key, I would then have to deal with parsing text box, editing content based on cursor position within the box and pushing the edited content back to the text box. a lot more work this way ...
Thank you all in advance for your assistance!
