Using Webrecorder without any result on .jsp or .aspx webpa

Hi,

I have some problems to record some handlings with a website
like http://services.tiscali.nl/cp/sso/Login ... li.nl&l=nl
or http://www.sms.ac/HomePage/Default.aspx

With website https://www.login.vebbottomline.nl/login.asp
i have no problems.

Can anybody tel me why webrecorder don't record my handlings,
or what must i change to record the handlings i want to do.
Are this the limitations of the webrecorder aplication.

Thanks in advance to helping me or giving me some hints to solve this problem (its also for other users!)

Looks like the tiscali site is using iframes which seem to be confusing WebRecorder. The second URL (sms.ac) seems to need an extra delay before the FormFills. The following script works:

// Generated by MacroScript WebRecorder 1.70
// Recorded on Tuesday, May 2, 2006, at 12:34 PM
LibLoad>IEAuto.dll,hIE
If>hIE=0
MessageModal>Could not load IEAuto.dll, make sure it is in the path or edit the LibLoad line.
Goto>end_script
EndIf

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

LibFunc>hIE,CreateIE,IE[0],0

LibFunc>hIE,Navigate,r,%IE[0]%,http://www.sms.ac/HomePage/Default.aspx
LibFunc>hIE,WaitIE,r,%IE[0]%
Wait>delay

LibFunc>hIE,WaitIE,r,%IE[0]%
Wait>delay

LibFunc>hIE,WaitIE,r,%IE[0]%
Wait>delay

LibFunc>hIE,WaitIE,r,%IE[0]%

LibFunc>hIE,WaitIE,r,%IE[0]%

Let>FrameName={""}

LibFunc>hIE,ClickTag,r,%IE[0]%,str:FrameName,str:FormName,A,TEXT,str:TagValue

LibFunc>hIE,WaitIE,r,%IE[0]%
Wait>delay

LibFunc>hIE,WaitIE,r,%IE[0]%
Wait>5

Let>FrameName={""}
Let>FormName={"Form1"}

Let>FieldValue={"fred"}
LibFunc>hIE,FormFill,r,%IE[0]%,str:FrameName,str:FormName,str:FieldName,str:FieldValue,0

Let>FrameName={""}

LibFunc>hIE,FormFill,r,%IE[0]%,str:FrameName,str:FormName,str:FieldName,str:FieldValue,0

Let>FrameName={""}

LibFunc>hIE,WaitIE,r,%IE[0]%
Wait>delay

LibFree>hIE
Label>end_script

You'll need to change the userId and Password.

Unfortunately there will be sites that WebRecorder can't cope with and some may need some manual editing. Because of the diverse nature of the web we can't guarantee that WebRecorder can record every possible web site and combination of web technologies.

Regarding the IFRAME issue of the tiscali site, I'll get that looked into and see if there is any solution for future releases. There may not be. Not everything can be recorded successfully.

Hi Marcus

Thanks for your coplete reply, i am very satisfied of the product webrecorder that must be mentiond!!! And also the replies that solves issues. I'll hope that this wil contribute to future development of the product webrecorder.
I am sure there will be a solution for websites that have frames in it.
(there are many of those sites)

I am looking forward to the solution.

Thanks a lot for your help!

Greetings
Simon
