iMacros EOL - Attention!

The renewal maintenance has officially ended for Progress iMacros effective November 20, 2023 and all versions of iMacros are now considered EOL (End-of-Life). The iMacros products will no longer be supported by Progress (aside from customer license issues), and these forums will also no longer be moderated from the Progress side.

Thank you again for your business and support.

Sincerely,
The Progress Team

I have v6 scripting edition and run into issues when interacting with IE9 popup dialogs. Before I upgrade to v7, I just wanted to see if things like that are resolved. Thanks.

Hi John,

Good question! We will be releasing IE9 support shortly after the final production release of IE9.

@Tom, thanks. Will we see a test build prior to IE9 RTW now that the IE9 Release Candidate is available?

We plan to release an update with full IE9 support in early March 2011, in time for the final IE9 release (which is, according to the rumors, planned for April).

Are you folks still on target with an update this month? I have some IE9 testing that I've been anxious to get started. Thanks

Here is the update from development:

The current iMacros V7.22 release has already almost full IE9 support. The only remaining known IE9 issues are:

1. Download dialog in IE9 browser not yet automated (works fine in the iMacros Browser).

2. The following macro works with IE8 installed but not IE9:

Code: Select all

URL GOTO=https://ads.youtube.com/keyword_tool
TAG POS=1 TYPE=TEXTAREA FORM=ID:keyword-chooser-form ATTR=ID:seed-term-tool-input CONTENT=bread
TAG POS=1 TYPE=INPUT:BUTTON FORM=ID:keyword-chooser-form ATTR=ID:get-keywords-for-seed-button&&VALUE:Get<SP>keyword<SP>ideas
TAG POS=1 TYPE=SELECT FORM=ID:keyword-chooser-form ATTR=ID:match-type-selector CONTENT=%phrase
 
Here the select element triggers the result list to update. With IE9 installed this event does not occur in playback mode (it does work fine if done manually)

We plan to fix these remaining two issues with the iMacros V7.30 update which is planned for next week. If you encounter any other issues after upgrading to Internet Explorer 9 please report them to us.

On a side note, after upgrading to IE9 the menu bar with the iMacros icon is missing. This is because IE9 hides the toolbar by default. => See How to display the IE9 menu bar?

The following works fine with Internet Explorer 9 but not with iMacros Browser (tried 7.22 Release & 7.30 Beta)

1. browse to the site http://pro.realquest.com/home/
2. sign in
3. use "Property Search" feature to lookup a property
4. click on any of the available reports, report is successfully launched in 2nd tab in iMacros Browser
5. close 2nd tab
6. enter new search criteria and click "search"....nothing. Neither iMacros Browser or the site is hung. It just seems like the search feature (javascript behind button) can no longer be invoked.

Any ideas?

JohnCz, can you please post the macro that works ok in IE9? This way we are both seeing the same issue.
