Hello,
If you look at the authentication form for Amazon, then you can see that you need to perform the following actions :
If you only press “Enter” after the username or the password, then it does not work (at least under Firefox).

This would be fantastic to have added.
Please also add the option to tab twice between username and password. Several banking sites need this, and so does GitHub.
@denis.beurive You can do this currently, this feature should probably be better documented currently mentioned in the users guide:
So one way to achieve this is as follows:
Where in the password field the value is set to:
’ \r password \t \r’
The documentation is wrong.
it specifies that these will work: \t textfield1 \t \t textfield3 (each tab/CR sequence padded with spaces)
but if I try using this in the password field: \t \t abcd ([space]\t[space]\t[space]abcd)
and letting the OnlyKey enter the resulting slot info in a text file, I get this:
75 73 65 72 6E 61 6D 65 username 09 09 5C 74 20 61 62 63 htht\t abc 64 0A 0A dlflf
(text file run through hexdump. the last linefeed is being added by vim)
the OnlyKey is eating some of the spaces, giving two horizontal tabs, and a literal “\t”. uwotm8?.
after trying several more formatting arrangements, I tried using password: \t\t abcd ([space]\t\t[space]abcd)
the result is:
75 73 65 72 6E 61 6D 65 username 09 09 61 62 63 64 0A 0A hthtabcdlflf
This is the desired output; but it shows (at a minimum) that the documentation is incorrect. The format specified in the documentation shows spaces padding each ‘\t’ or ‘\r’ sequence, which doesn’t work.
Ideally, this hack would not be necessary for the end user to deal with. I would recommend making the following changes to the UI:
Overall I think this product is fantastic and well worth the price. But the UI needs some work (replacing the whole slot config with a graphical block depiction of the full output string that the user can interact with would be really cool, but possibly a bit much for JavaScript). Anyhow, thanks for your work and the support!
@zfortier Thanks for the detailed post. I think the issue here may be that you are not using two spaces in between the ‘\t’
From the docs, if you notice there are two spaces in between if you chain together multiple tabs.
@t11 You are right, I did miss that in the documentation. I’d still argue that there are better and more intuitive (or at least, less error prone) ways to implement this functionality. Asking users to manually enter escape sequences into fields that are intended for other information IMO is a pretty clear indication that something is wrong with the UI.
How about a read-only text box that displays the output that would be produced:
[CR]my_username[TAB][TAB]my_password[CR][3 SEC DELAY][TOTP][CR]
That’s perhaps easier than changing the UI, and it looks like Wizard.prototype.setSlot is doing this anyway, based on the order of fieldMap.
As I have just try to set a slot for a site where it need to TAB before entering user login after page is loaded I have tried to select “Tab before UserName” and insert another TAB in “UserName” as “\t my_user_name” and it did not work.
Just writing “[TAB]\t my_user_name” her also the working combo is with " \t my_user_name" this really is not clear in the doc and need lot of trial and error.
