> Modal Dialog with radio buttons

  In recording secure transactions, we often encounter modal dialogs
  which has much more selections to be made as compared to the
  standard "Ok" and "Cancel" buttons. It more than often consists of
  a text field where a user can enter various types information which
  eValid deals with accordingly.

  When radio buttons are contained in a Modal Dialog Box, a selection
  made using the space key to make the proper selection/s.

  (1) Start your recording at a site you know contains modal dialogs
      that have extended use.

  (2) To insert a virtual key press of the space key in a modal dialog,
      access the modal dialog commands from the script dialog box.
      "Insert > Modal Dialog Commands"

  (3) Select ModalDialogText.

  (4) The ModalDialogText command is added to your script.

  (5) Inside the double quotes, press the space key to simulate a key
      press on the modal dialog.

  (6) Stop recording and playback your script.

  (7) In playback, you will observe that eValid treats the  " "
      character as a virtual key press on the keyboard and makes the
      appropriate selection in the modal dialog.
