"Inputdlg" doesn't work. Is it OS X compatible?

"Inputdlg" doesn't work. Is it OS X compatible?

"Inputdlg" doesn't work. Is it OS X compatible?

(OP)
I get the following error message whenever I use the inputdlg command (i.e.
answer=inputdlg(prompt) ):
??? Error using ==> isvarname
Attempt to execute SCRIPT namelengthmax as a function.

Error in ==> guihandles>createHandles at 96
if ~isempty(tag) & isvarname(tag) % can it be used as a fieldname?

Error in ==> guihandles at 75
handles = createHandles(fig);

Error in ==> inputdlg at 303
handles = guihandles(InputFig);

Does anybody know if this is an os x problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

RE: "Inputdlg" doesn't work. Is it OS X compatible?

prompt='hallo'
answer=inputdlg(prompt)

Works in w2k from the command line

does it work from the command line rather than a script?

Cheers
