Hi,

This can be quite tricky... Could you please post the URL and short instruction on what needs to be filled-in, so that I can try it here?

Thanks,

Hello, I am bumping this topic because I've a simular problem.
I am trying to fill in an form with multiple fields. They all work fine except for 1.

This is a Textarea visible @ the following link: http://verkopen.marktplaats.nl/select_category.php
You can see the form I’m mean if you fill in some random info in the first form... "Antiek en Kunst" and then "Bestek"... When you need to fill in an email address, just fill in a fake one, it doesn’t matter.
In this picture, you'll see the Description field I would like to fill in automatically.

When you look at the source code, there is nothing weird and I can’t see that this is via an iframe. Only when I look at the code in FireBug, I see that the textarea is in an iframe.

Does anyone have a solution to fill in this field with imacro? You would really help me out.

I will provide pictures of the code in the browser and in Firebug below:

Hi Ebility,

I've only been able to get this to work with DirectScreen, which is available in the iMacros commercial editions.

Code: Select all
