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.

I created a simple loop to visit a list of pages from a .csv file and play the youtube video on the page. It works great up until this line:

TAG POS=1 TYPE=EMBED ATTR=HREF:http://www.youtube.com/*/*/
WAIT SECONDS=60

Here is the error message I get:

Error# 801 in line:14 , TAG not found

TYPE=EMBED

ATTR=HREF:http://www.youtube.com/*/*/

Any ideas why this wild card does not work??

WHy is the line

Code: Select all

TAG POS=1 TYPE=EMBED ATTR=HREF:http://www.youtube.com/*/*/ 
instead of

Code: Select all

TAG POS=1 TYPE=EMBED ATTR=HREF:http://www.youtube.com/*
without looking at a page or trying a youtube video it looks like that could be your issue.

Implementation of a TAG statement can only be a HREF statement.

http://www.youtube.com/* is not the only.
