What script to refresh the page until the item is available
Hi all ! I'm trying to make a macro/bot for this shopping website so i can get the items i want without siting there clicking all day long. I have been trying to make something in this program where i can have it refresh the page until the item is available then have it add to cart and buy. I want the script to check the page until the item is there and buy it. The page has to refresh a lot because the items sell within 1-3 sec of being posted. Also I want to buy 2 items everytime when it is available.
VERSION BUILD=1011 RECORDER=CR
WAIT SECONDS=1
URL GOTO=https://shopee.com.my/
TAG POS=1 TYPE=BUTTON ATTR=TXT:buy<SP>now
TAG POS=1 TYPE=BUTTON ATTR=TXT:checkout
TAG POS=1 TYPE=SPAN ATTR=TXT:ShopeePay
TAG POS=1 TYPE=BUTTON ATTR=TXT:place<SP>order
So far with the above script , I will always stuck and got the below error msg
RuntimeError: element BUTTON specified by TXT:checkout was not found, line: 5
Appreciate any help. Thank you so much!

(F)CIM...! (Read my Sig...) I "thought" you had read the Forum Rules, but you missed the Section about mentioning your FCI...
=> iMacros for CR v10.1.1, 'Free'/'PE'/'Trial'...?, CR90...?, OS...?
>>>
But yep, for your "Scenario", I think you need to enable '!ERRORIGNORE' to "bypass" the "checkout" Button Line when that Button is not present/available/enabled, + to shorten '!TIMEOUT_STEP' to "1" or "0" or your Script will wait for 6 Sec for each Line/'TAG' that doesn't get found...
- (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...

Re: What script to refresh the page until the item is available
Hi , tq for your reply and sorry that I missed the note . I am very very new with imacros and still not sure what are some of the items mean.
Imacros Version 10.1.0.1485
Browser : Chrome & Firefox
MacOS 11.3.1
IMacros Free version
Anyway , I have altered the script to be as below
VERSION BUILD=10101485
WAIT SECONDS=0
SET !TIMEOUT_STEP 0
SET !ERRORIGNORE YES
URL GOTO=https://shopee.com.my/
TAG POS=1 TYPE=BUTTON ATTR=TXT:buy<SP>now
TAG POS=1 TYPE=BUTTON ATTR=TXT:checkout
TAG POS=1 TYPE=SPAN ATTR=TXT:ShopeePay
TAG POS=1 TYPE=BUTTON ATTR=TXT:place<SP>order

OK, Thanks for your FCI(s), even if the Browser Versions are still missing for both Browsers, but that will give I reckon:
Code: Select all
- iMacros for CR v10.1.1, 'Free', CR90, macOS v11.3.1.
- iMacros for FF v10.1.0, 'Free', FF88, macOS v11.3.1.
>>>
Yep well, then, you simply need to record clicking on the "+" Sign to increment the Qtt from "1" to '2", I would think...
I don't see any "Difficulty"...
The "Buy Now" Button will remain disabled I reckon for "0 piece available" and "1 piece available"...
And if you only want to click on the "+" Sign when you know "for sure" that there are at least 2 Items available, I reckon the "piece" will become "pieces" (Plural) in "4 pieces available" for example, then you could use that "n piece(s) available" Element as 'Anchor' for 'Relative Positioning' for some "basic" Conditional Logic...
=> Stg like:
Code: Select all

WAIT SECONDS=0
SET !TIMEOUT_STEP 0
SET !ERRORIGNORE YES
URL GOTO=https://shopee.com.my/

OK, glad incrementing the Nb of Items already works...
And for the Checkbox, yeah, well..., simply let iMacros record clicking in that Checkbox...
=> It will probably record stg like...:
Code: Select all
TAG POS=1 TYPE=INPUT:CHECKBOX FORM=NAME:??? ATTR=NAME:??? CONTENT=YES

Re: What script to refresh the page until the item is available
once again . thank you for your response !
I am now able to get to the "Pay" page. However since I am playing the script in a loop, whenever I get to the Pay page , it will be loading the Buy page again before I can press the Pay button ( i have to play the macro in a loop since I am waiting until the item is available) .
Is there anyway that I can stop the loop once it reaches the Pay page?

Hum, OK, your last Post was about some CB (Checkbox) to tick..., that I don't even see in your last Script..., hum OK...(?)
Then for your "last" Pb. well, several Possibilities:
Use the 'PAUSE' Command, of 'FAIL_IF_FOUND', or 'EXTRACT' + 'MacroError()', or some 'Conditional Sound' or 'Conditional 'PROMPT'', you have quite a few Options... (... All of them "perfectly" documented in the Wiki or on the Forum, I would think...)
All "Terms" I mention with Single Quotes are Commands from the Wiki or Keywords to be used to search the Forum...:
- Example_1: 'FAIL_IF_FOUND'...
- Example_2: 'Conditional Sound'...
(And I've already provided/posted a "Solution" for all Scenarios I mentioned..., hum., except 'FAIL_IF_FOUND', I think, which is pure Wiki/Documentation and that I never use myself... (I find 'MacroError()' more "powerful"...!)
