Re: NS_ERROR_UNEXPECTED: Component returned failure code: 0x

Thanks for the PALEMOON reference - I installed it and my macros work again!

Perhaps not an ideal solution as I would prefer to be running the latest versions of Firefox and iMacos, but it is a viable work-around until the issues are resolved.

PS: I was getting -1001 errors on TAB commands...

Re: Batch File: Load Firefox, Run Macro(s), Close

For the correction above: If ALL Firefox windows are closed before you start, and if you add the window close to each of your js files, you should be able to launch a single batch file that executes Firefox multiple times. (I had forgotten this behavior.) This batch file runs the same js twice. The ...

Re: Batch File: Load Firefox, Run Macro(s), Close

It is not necessary to start Firefox for each macro. Normally the batch file will complete as soon as Firefox starts so that it might indeed be difficult to start Firefox for each macro... What is likely to happen is that you will send multiple pages to Firefox in rapid succession so that only the L...

Re: Batch File: Load Firefox, Run Macro(s), Close

For the problem from wviswildandwonderful, it is important to get the return code if you want to wait for the macro to complete. (It may also be necessary to use the returned value, but I have not tested that possibility). In your post of Aug 21, you use iimPlay, but you do not get the return code s...

Re: Batch File: Load Firefox, Run Macro(s), Close: STILL WOR

I must admit that (a) I have not been using my own code for a couple of years and (b) my old laptop died so I have a totally fresh install of FireFox to play with. Previously, I had only used XP, but my new laptop has Windows 7. First, I verified that the basic process still works and that the link ...

Re: Batch File: Load Firefox, Run Macro(s), Close

Exactly what do you mean by "it no longer works!"? If you want me or anyone else to take a stab at your question, we really need to replicate your problem before we start so please provide as much information as you can on the differences between then and now. Have you changed your OS? If ...

Re: Workaround for lack of DS mouse commands

Hello joiner: Your settings look correct. The issue may be that the web page you are dealing with may not be responding to a mousedown, but may instead be responding to a click or mouseup. I would suggest that you try to first manually experiment with interactions: e.g. hold down the mouse button an...

Re: Workaround for lack of DS mouse commands

Re inter's question on mouseover: Using the naming conventions of DS mouse commands, the MOVETO command is equivalent to placing the mouse over the specified object. Try the following with the original macro as posted: iimSet("_DS_ObjectId","b070153850_0"); iimSet("_DS_Comma...

Re: Workaround for lack of DS mouse commands

If you can be a little more specific with the "though it does not work for me", I will be happy to try to replicate your issue and get back to you. Note, however, that I have only looked at this with the Firefox version. As for injecting text contents for your e-mail, you should be able to...

Injecting Javascript Statements From A Macro

This allows the equivalent to a javascript include so that javascript variable values can be easily changed without altering the main javascript code. It is often difficult (and error-prone) to modify a .js script that is played to control iMacros. This simple js function permits injection of javasc...

Can you get more information on the element you are trying to click? Either inspect with FireBug or get the generated source.

Debugging Javascvript: Syntax and execution errors

It is not easy to know where you have a syntax error or an execution error when you PLAY a .js file. With JSSyntaxCheck, you can easily find and fix all syntax errors before you try to PLAY the file. Save the entire JSSyntaxCheck.html file - I recommend saving it in the same directory as your macros...
