IEwait Issues

Post by Limpnit » Sat Jan 21, 2017 3:06 am

Loving the software, still getting used to it but this issue has been bothering me today.

When i use IEWait,IEWaitDocumentComplete,IEWaitTimeout it does not seem to work.

For example if I do

Code: Select all

IEGetFromURL>http://www.yahoo.com,PageTest


Label>Refresh
IERefresh>PageTest,
IEWait>http://www.yahoo.com
goto>Refresh
It does not seem to wait for the page to load instead instead just instantly refreshes.

Same thing happens with all other variations of IEWait. Any pointers?

I was able to achieve this using IEWaitTimeout.

One thing I noticed also is that your code used http://www.yahoo.com, whereas for me, yahoo was httpS://www.yahoo.com. This meant IEGetFromURL couldn't find a match and PageTest was -1

Code: Select all

IEGetFromURL>yahoo.com,PageTest

Label>Refresh
IERefresh>yahoo.com,result
IEWaitTimeout>PageTest,30,1,res
goto>Refresh
