Pausing a script until a key is pressed

Featured Replies

I have written an online system for doing pupil reports in a Scottish Secondary school. Each 4th year student studies 8 school subjects. I have a script which looks at each subject (Maths, English etc.) layout for one particular pupil. I can pause between each subject layout for the same set time by setting a number of seconds in pause script option. Some layouts require more reading than others, any way to pause the script until say, the mouse is clicked, which then moves onto the next subject layout and then again waits for a mouse click?

If I understand you...yes. When you use the Pause/Resume script you leave it as it (do not define a time to pause) and it will pause until either the continue button in the status area is click or until the user hits the "enter" key. You could also give them a button which resumes the script.
