Demo

benmansley.github.io/AutoTyper/demo

Installation

AutoTyper is a JavaScript only plugin, so download autotyper.min.js and you're all set to use it in your project.

Usage

To run the AutoTyper, use $.autoType() on the element you will be typing in. The plugin uses $.text(), so it won't work on form inputs. The function takes 3 parameters, outlined below.

Parameter	Type	Description
inputText	string	The text that will be outputted by the AutoTyper
speed	number	The speed of the typing, in ms/ character
skipSpaces	boolean	If set to true, the AutoTyper will type spaces immediately, with no tick of the timer
A value of 'stop' for inputText will cause the AutoTyper to go to the end of the input immediately, shown by the 'End' button in the demo. High quality, modern flow control right there

Known Issues

The plugin can not currently run more than once simultaneously on the same page.
