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

Chrome 62 Windows 7 Professional BUILD=844
Hello
I am beginner in iMacros programming. I need to build a macro:
1. Try to find on website a text. If this text exist it should do something.
2. If this text doesn't exist it should check website for another one and if that exist do something (loop).
I tried to find something on iMacros wiki but I have never programmed anything in this kind of programming language (I know that if doesn't work).
I know that there are more serious discussions but I would be happy if I got link to similar discussion or program which would be base for my macro.

Not exact same Thread like yours and what you want to do, but the "Principle" is the same and it contains THE "Discussion" you are looking for, and relevant Links to achieve what you want to do in pure '.iim' using iMacros for CR...:
- How to ignore or change a field if column is empty
And if you search the Forum a bit, you'll find as well oodles of very similar Threads like yours with the same Requirements... :idea:
- (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...
