WebRecorder to capture name of image on website

[GarryP]

I am new to webrecorder, so please bear with me, I am sure I am missing something simple. On a vendor website, TD50 is a date and time of posting, TD51 is a dollar amount, TD52 is a total number of items in file, TD53 has IMG10. There are multiple rows following the same pattern, what I am trying to accomplish is: the image is TD53 is named YesNoTrue.gif or YesNoFalse.gif which of course are pictures of Yes or No, I want to read the name of that file, and if it is YesNoFalse.gif I know I have not yet downloaded the data, so I download it. Else move to the next row and check again. I have the entire process working fine except I cannot figure out how to find out if I have previously downloaded.

I would like to either determine the filename of the image, or actually save the image then validate it.

Thanks

How can I save the google image from http://www.google.com If I can get that, I should be able to work my to what I am looking for.

This gets the image tag from Google:

Code: Select all

// Generated by MacroScript WebRecorder 2.0
// Recorded on  Thursday, November 22, 2007, at 08:46 AM

//Move the mouse cursor out of harm's way to avoid causing mouseover events to interrupt
MouseMove>0,0
Let>delay=1
IE_Create>0,IE[1]

IE_Navigate>%IE[1]%,www.google.com,r
IE_Wait>%IE[1]%,r
Wait>delay

//Modify buffer size if required ...
Let>IMG0_SIZE=4098
IE_ExtractTag>%IE[1]%,,IMG,0,1,IMG0,r
MidStr>r_6,1,r,IMG0
MessageModal>IMG0

LibFree>hIE
Label>end_script

If this were from your vendor website you could then do your logic could be something like:

Pos>YesNoTrue.gif,IMG0,1,pYN
If>pYN>0
//image is YesNoTrue
Else
//image is YesNoFalse
Endif

Thank you, this works perfectly for me now. Not sure what my thought process was that I missed that one, but again I defer to your knowledge and a superb product.

Hi Marcus,

The following commands...

IE_Create>0,IE[1]
IE_Navigate>%IE[1]%,www.google.com,r
IE_Wait>%IE[1]%,r
IE_ExtractTag>%

...are not recognized by Macro Scheduler Pro ver 9.2.01 which is the latest version.

I haven't been keeping up with advances in Webrecorder... but I thought all code it generates would be runnable/editable/recognized by Macro Scheduler... at least I think it was this way in the past.

Have things changed or will these new "Webrecorder commands?" soon be recognized by the Macro Scheduler product as well?

Those are WebRecorder commands - part of the WebRecorder library. You need WebRecorder to use them.
