play iMacro if URL is loaded

Post by Mehmet » Mon Nov 11, 2013 12:56 pm

Hello friends, simple question (difficult problem):

I got i@Sky a weather information center screened on a external display, connected by USB stick radio. The informations of current weather is loaded by a autostart program which is opening Firefox. I installed iMacros for Firefox plugin already :D

"The" point: that program is opening Firefox with the URL "http://www.iatsky.com/....." and everytimes (after each computer starting) I have to type and click Language=english, apply... Location=Los Angeles, apply... Data=weather and probably of rain, apply... Show state=changing every 30 sec's, apply... I already created everything but it runs only if I press F8 and click "i@Sky.iim" and "Play"...

My question: How do I program a macro, that it starts everytime if a certain URL is opened in Firefox (every step automatically, everytime if that URL is opened (the i@Sky program does open it automatically)?

Thanx a lot for answer :-) beside I already plagued google.com with that question... I need help

I repeat "I already plagued google.com with that question... I need help"
That page I have already seen. But thanx anyway. The problem:

I dont want to autostart a batch file (I already tried) seperatly.
Because that batch openes a new tab and in the tab "i@sky weather information center" is opened happens nothing.
The batch makes "open Firefox again - new tab - ignore running tab (because new tab is opened)

The situation:
Computer's startup, login Windows, by loading Windows the computer application openes everytime standard browser (Firefox 25) with configuration page. And if the configuration page is opened with URL http://www.iatsky.com... the macro should start (in same tab) because that URL http://www.iatsky.com... was opened

I NEED A SOLUTION THAT STARTS THE MACRO FULL AUTOMATICALLY IF THE URL "http://www.iatsky.com/....." IS REQUESTED - by any means necessary.

A batch which openes a macro INTO A ALREADY OPENED WINDOW
or
A macro has to RUN AUTOMATICALLY IF A SPECIFIC URL IS REQUESTED (in same tab)

Got nobody any idea? :shock:

Sounds more like a GreaseMonkey Script...
- (F)CI(M) = (Full) Config Info (Missing): iMacros + Browser + OS (+ all 3 Versions + 'Free'/'PE'/'Trial').
- FCI not mentioned: I don't even read the Qt...! (or only to catch Spam!)
- Script & URL help a lot for more "educated" Help...
