no query item shows in scripts

[bbgaw]

Hi,

I am trying to automate this website. I recorded it through WebRecorder, but it seems like my query item is not shown in the scripts at all. Then how can I tell script what to search? Is it hidden somewhere? I did input 71-43-2 in the search box.

Here is my scripts. Thanks a lot!

MouseMove>0,0
Let>delay=1
IE_Create>0,IE[0]

IE_Navigate>%IE[0]%,http://ecb.jrc.it/esis/,r
IE_Wait>%IE[0]%,r
Wait>delay

Let>FrameName={"esisquestion"}
Let>FormName={"ESISISForm"}
Let>TagValue={""}
IE_ClickTag>%IE[0]%,str:FrameName,str:FormName,INPUT,NAME,str:TagValue,r

IE_Wait>%IE[0]%,r
Wait>delay

Not sure why that fails to record, but this works fine:

Code: Select all

// Generated by MacroScript WebRecorder 2.03
// Recorded on  Wednesday, May 14, 2008, at 03:25 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[1],0

LibFunc>hIE,Navigate,r,%IE[1]%,http://ecb.jrc.it/esis-pgm/esis_pgm.php
LibFunc>hIE,WaitIE,r,%IE[1]%
Wait>delay

LibFunc>hIE,WaitIE,r,%IE[1]%
Wait>delay

Let>FrameName={"esisquestion"}
Let>FormName={"ESISISForm"}
Let>FieldName={"ENTREE"}
Let>FieldValue={"71-43-2"}
LibFunc>hIE,FormFill,r,%IE[1]%,str:FrameName,str:FormName,str:FieldName,str:FieldValue,0

Let>FrameName={"esisquestion"}
Let>FormName={"ESISISForm"}
Let>TagValue={""}
LibFunc>hIE,ClickTag,r,%IE[1]%,str:FrameName,str:FormName,INPUT,NAME,str:TagValue

LibFunc>hIE,WaitIE,r,%IE[1]%
Wait>delay

LibFree>hIE
Label>end_script

That was recording against the required frame.

Hi, Marcus!

That works! I am able to search now. Then I got the following questions about "parse" the webpage I got, so that I can save the right file.

My question is When I search by CAS# 121-32-4, then on the result page, I got a line saying:
" IUCLID & OECD Chemical Data Sheets and Export Files Information:

Not available for this substance. "

in this case, I don't save anything. I wonder how can I determine this case happened. Can I still use IE_ContainsText> since I got two lines now?

My second question is: when I search by CAS# 71-43-2, I got a line saying:
" IUCLID & OECD Chemical Data Sheets and Export Files information:

IUCLIC Chemical Data Sheet: view & save it

How Can I tell the scripts that I want to click view & save it on this line, since there several of them at different places on this page?

Thank you very much!

Yes, you can use ContainsText and check for "Not available for this substance".

To click on multiple links with the same text you would have to specify the tag using some other attribute. With luck each anchor has a different name/ID. If not, you can specify INDEX and refer to each one by number. See the WebRecorder help file.
