Has anyone solved this challenge? I too would like to know :)
I finally figured it out.
1. set up a variable in Lectora (I'll call it fromField)
2. set up a text field in lecotra and put text in it and note its ID (mine is text38)
2. on a trigger, such as a button click run the following JavaScript.
3. x=document.getElementById("text38").textContent;
VarfromField.set(x);
You just set the Lectora variable fromField tot he contents of text38.
