          Just reviewing your modules, they look great! in particular I may have a use case for the keyboard, do you have an estimation when it will be ready to use?

              Also guys, when creating the initial content of the module, will it have to be built using the document objet model or will I be able to bring in a HTML page and edit it using the DOM? Unsure of where to kick of from

              you can use the element.innerHTML value to inject a raw html text block into that element

                @jcleary05 the module is contributing a small section of html, ONLY its content… the overall page is managed by MM…

                the getDom() method returns the small dom tree to inject into the page… in the position element of the page…

                see my sample module https://github.com/sdetweil/SampleModule

                if u look at ~/MagicMirror/index.html, you will see the page layout

                each module is placed into one of those regions.

                if you use the developers window (ctrl-shift-i) and select the elements tab. you can see the modules output in place

                    Thanks for all your help so far!
                    I am currently trying to build a step by step form, which the user will interact with to answer a number of questions.
                    Would it be possible to run each element of this form as separate functions called by the getDom function?

                    Also, to make things easier, would it be possible to call in a piece of html into the js file to work with, instead of having to build the entire form using the createElement functions?

                    The example I am currently trying to build is similar to this:

                        @jcleary05 run each button press as separate. Sure.

                        They don’t have to be online in getDom(). They just have to be linked to the button onClick
