Hi,
I am trying to logon to the following website:
http://www.tabonline.com.au
I used webrecorder to generate the script. But when I try to enter Account and Password the webrecorder did not generate the script.

Here are the steps:
-navigate to http://www.tabonline.com.au
-click on 'Racing' image
-Enter account = xxxxx
-Enter password = yyyyy

The account and password are not recorded.

Could someone please help me please please please !!!!!

I think the problem is that this site uses a frame for the login which is at a different domain to the main site and is also encrypted with SSL/HTTPS while the other frames are not. This is preventing WebRecorder from working with it.

The best solution would be to send keystrokes. Use WebRecorder to open the main site and then click on the Racing link. Focus is automatically placed in the login field so now all you need to add to the script is:

Send>username
Press Tab
Send>password
Press Enter
