OT: need python help please

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



My daughter wants to teach her students tkinter interface with python.

She cannot get an entry into the field entry1=Entry(fishDisplay, width=35).grid(row=0, column=1) to display and this is out of my expertise. Can someone point us to a suitable tutorial on how to get test in a tk field into a variable and how to display it.

I ran Idle debug and the result from entry1 is None.

Part of the little app she wrote is as follows.
Please help if possible.
thanks in advance
Roger
