# Keyboard
When you want to accept content from the user, you instantiate and interact with `wiiKeyboard`. Utilizing its method, you can specify layouts and options for input that best fit your content.
```javascript
var keyboard = new wiiKeyboard();
```
Note that `wiiKeyboard` will only function on pages loading over HTTPS. You will need to modify the Wii Shop Channel to load your content. Opera (and IOS via EC) only has SSLv3/TLS 1.0 available, so additional modifications to various trust levels may be necessary.
## Members
Unlike other objects, `wiiKeyboard` only exposes one member. Its usefulness is instead via its parameters variants.

| `keyboard.call(type)` | Invokes a keyboard of the specified type.
An example of keyboard.call(1).
|
| `keyboard.call(type, rowLimit)` | Invokes a keyboard of type with a limit of the amount of rows available for typing.
An example of a row limit when invoked as keyboard.call(1, 1). As the text (highlighted red to designate the error) exceeds the first row, it is deleted upon entry.
|
| `keyboard.call(type, rowLimit, isPassword)` | Instantiates a keyboard of type with rowLimit and whether the entered text isPassword. If true, entered text becomes asterisks after entry or space bar, as pictured beneath.
An example of keyboard.call(1, 3, true). Note that "text", highlighted red, has not yet converted to asterisks.
|
| `keyboard.call(type, rowLimit, isPassword, hint)` | Instantiates a keyboard of type with rowLimit, whether the entered text isPassword, and a background text of hint.
An example of keyboard.call(1, 3, false, 'Text Hint').

### Default
Type `0`, or defaulted to if any value above 13 is specified. A generic keyboard.
### Default (?)
Type `1`. Appears to behave similarly to [Default](#default) on all regions.
### Number Pad
Type `2`. Provides a generic number pad, useful for things such as friend code entry.
### Default without Completion, Return Key
Type `3`. The same as [Default](#default), but lacking a return key and word completion/suggestion.
### Large Font
Type `4`. Entered text cannot exceed the text field's length.
### Default without Return, Completion, Number Pad
Type `5`. Lacks word completion/suggestion, and the switcher UI between QWERTY and a number pad: 
### Large Font without Return and Number Pad
Type `6`. Lacks word completion/suggestion, and the switcher UI between QWERTY and a number pad.
### Large Number with Decimal
Type `7`. Provides a decimal point alongside numeric entry.
### Large Number with Decimal(?)
Type `8`. Appears to operate similarly to [Large Number with Decimal](#large-number-with-decimal) - TODO: Does this function differently in other regions?

Type `9`. Provides a usable Friend Code entry pad.
### Default without Return
Type `10`. Unlike [Default without Completion, Return](#default-without-return-key), this type does have completion. It lacks a return key.
