I'm trying to streamline some of our tasks at my place of work, and it seems that quite a lot of our developers' time is spent doing semi-mechanical tasks on the web (specifically, editing online stores that use web-based interfaces). As such, I've been looking into some solutions that will allow these tasks to be done by scripts since I...
I am looking for a solution to fill web forms from flash or javascript. The "filling" should be done non-visually. The "filling" should be initiated from user computer, because I need to access local network resource. Just by looking at Selenium and iMacros I can tell that creating player that is smart enough is a pretty big project. I ...
I am looking to automate selecting an item from a list where the generated HTML looks like: <select name="uid_1""> <option value="0">All</option> <option value="1">Option A</option> <option value="2">Option B</option> <option value="3">Option C</option> </select> I can use the iMacros script line to select Option A, which has a value ...
Hi There is this IMacro scripting tool, if you want to automate some web page visits by using javascript. I would like to have my javascript to read from a local .txt file (not a .cvs file and not well formatted.. I would like to search in it probably with a regular expression..) and based on that reading, the script will do some j...
How do I save an image from a php script for instance an image from index.php with imacro? Thanks ...
This question is specific to the iMacros suite in particular. What is the best way to go about automatically starting a javascript file that controls my macros inside firefox? Basically, I have an imacros.js file that calls a series of imacros.iim files. How can I run this javascript automatically? ...
Hi all: I know there must be ways to do this sort of things. I am not pro in RoR or Python, not even an expert in PHP. So my solution tends to be quite dumb: It uses a FireFox add-on called imarcos to scrape the target urls from Google SERP, and use PHP to store info into the database. At the very core of my workaround there lies a pro...
We're using iMacros to fill web forms. Does anyone know how many instances of iMacros can be run at the same time on a PC? If I need to automatically fill web forms for screen scraping, is there a better tool if I need "tons" of instances to run simultaneously? Thanks. ...
I need to copy values from a form displayed in one HTML page (incoming.html) to another HTML page (outgoing.html) in a browser. What will be the best approach to this, I have tried using imacros but have not been able to figure it out. I believe there can be a javascript solution to the above. What can be the best approach, I need the fe...
(iMacros For Firefox 6.6.5.0; Firefox 3.6.3; Windows XP Pro SP3 w/all updates) I made an iMacro to select "load next 25" (comments) on a web page (CNN.COM). Unfortunately, iMacros doesn't appear to do looping (do the above until that string doesn't appear on the page anymore - i.e. all the comments are loaded). I tried putting {!iloop} ...
What is this error code? The link "-100...-999 (sMacroError)" on this page "http://wiki.imacros.net/Error-Codes" just reloads the SAME PAGE again. Great. I get this error when I execute this .vbs file: Option Explicit Dim iim1, iret 'initialize iMacros instance set iim1 = CreateObject ("iMacros") iret = iim1.iimInit("-fx", false)...
Currently, I have a script that calls Firefox and runs a macro, but this is very buggy and rarely works the way I want it to. ...
