 'Text Box' is really a misnomer as these may also contain local or remote images and even animated Flash (SWF) content.  Text boxes differ from buttons in that they display textual/image content rather than on/off status, and they do not control devices. Indeed text boxes do not intercept clicks at all and so can be placed over other elements as required.  You will find text boxes are far more flexible at displaying content from xAPBSC text devices than buttons.  Buttons used for this purpose only have small centered text areas within the button boundaries whereas textbox's can be any size and at any position.  'Text Box' is really a misnomer as these may also contain local or remote images and even animated Flash (SWF) content.  Text boxes differ from buttons in that they display textual/image content rather than on/off status, and they do not control devices.
