Inputting HTML code

Post by rosspubgrp » Tue May 31, 2016 4:25 pm

I am trying to fill out a form which accepts (requires) limited HTML tags. Such as < B >, < I >, < BR >, and < P >. Yet when I put these in an imacro, either through manual entry or recording, and then play back the macro, it parses these instead of inserting the raw text. Is there a way to 'escape' those commands, so they are typed out, not parsed?

<BR> is for new line just <SP> is for space
you can enclose text to be entered with double quotes if you are facing issue.

TAG POS=1 TYPE=TEXTAREA ATTR=ID:area CONTENT="</body><br><b>test</b>"
