HTML Presentation Object: Search Textbox

This example code is a textbox with the following features:
- Textbox contents can be bound to a definable context variable (line var variableBinding<#uniqueId> = "myVariable1";)
- There is a definable delay after which the typed text is set to the context variable (var inputDelay<#uniqueId> = 1000;)
- Set the delay to 0, to disable it
- There is a magnifier button to "start the search" which stores the text immediately to the bound context variable
- Clicking the Enter key makes the same as clicking the magnifier button
- The magnifier button can be removed, to make the input textbox more generic (remove the line starting with <img)
- Clicking the magnifier button can also change other context variables, such as open a separate view for the search results (add new command to function searchClicked<#uniqueId>)
