<input class="js-virtual-keyboard" data-kioskboard-type="keyboard" data-kioskboard-placement="bottom" data-kioskboard-specialcharacters="false" placeholder="Your Name" />

Language (JSON)

The keysJsonUrl option has to be set if custom keys are not defined with the keysArrayOfObjects option. JSON format has to be: [{"key":"value", "key":"value"}, ...]. Each object in that array creates a row element (HTML) on the keyboard. The "key" in the objects is used as an "index" for each Keyboard Keys. The "value" is each key's value and inner text.

Additionally, KioskBoard includes 9 different language packages: Arabic, English, French, German, Hungarian, Persian, Russian, Spanish, and Turkish.

An example of a JSON file (for custom keys) in English.
