extract dynamical prices

iMacros v12 enterprise edition/

Good morning,
I've been searching for so long, and I found answers on the forum, but it doesn't work for my case...I hope someone could help me.
I need to extract products transport cost on a website (such as amazon), but it depends on the number of products ordered.
When I create my macro on iMacros, I just underline the price with my mouse : TAG POS=1 TYPE=P ATTR=TXT:5,76<SP>€
But if I run my macro again and that this price changed, it still indicate 5.76 euros.
My question : how to extract in a better way dynamic informations ? Then I want this information in a csv.
template of my extraction :
TAG POS=1 TYPE=P ATTR=TXT:5,76<SP>€ EXTRACT=TXT
SAVEAS TYPE=EXTRACT FOLDER=C:\Users\UTILISATEUR\Documents\iMacros FILE=TSEfraisTransport1.csv

Best regards, Romane (from France)

I think I have to use the ID of those elements, but, I don't know how to get this ID...

Hum, so you moved from iMacros v10.0.2 for CR to iMB v12.0, ah-ah...!

I think I have to use the ID of those elements, but, I don't know how to get this ID...

Yep, if the Price (= the 'TXT' Attr) is Dynamic, you need to use some other Attribute(s) like the 'ID' or the 'Class' of that 'P' Element.

And maybe if it's the only Price on that Page, or if there are not "too many" similar 'P' Elements with a '€' Sign, and the Position of "your" Price on the Page doesn't change, the following might work:

Code: Select all

TAG POS=1 TYPE=P ATTR=TXT:*<SP>€ EXTRACT=TXT

... but you might need to adapt the 'POS=1'...

You can identify that 'ID' and all other Attributes you could use from the Source Code, from an 'EXTRACT=HTM' on that Element or from the 'Full HTML' (= 'Expert Mode') Record Mode...

And you can as well probably use 'Relative Positioning', on the Name/Label of the Product for example as Anchor..., but it all depends on what will remain "Constant" on the Page and from the Logic in your Script...

Yeah, that's what I tried : TAG POS=1 TYPE=P ATTR=TXT:*<SP>€ EXTRACT=TXT
Thank you for the confirmation.
best regards.

OK..., and does it work...?

"Confirmation"..., hum..., I cannot "confirm" anything as you didn't post the URL of the Page, "Confirmation" must come from you, ah-ah...!

It worked
But I think it would not work if the relative place of the price on the page change...
Actually I don't know how to make my macros still working if the "structure" moves.

Ah OK, that's a good start then...

Well, the "relative place" of the Price will not change from the 'Product Name' that Price relates to...
"Relative" is always... well... "relative" to stg..., that's why you need to use some Element for the Anchor that will not "move" or that iMacros can locate and tag without ambiguity... That's the "Purpose" of 'Relative Positioning'...!

I can't tell you more without looking at that Page and how it "behaves" and what changes and remains "constant"...
