I wish that the update notice for the plug-in for Firefox would open in a new tab, not displace whatever I was working on in whatever tab happened to be open!

Re: Feature Requests & Bug Fix Requests. ADD YOURS!
I would really like that the ONWEBDIALOG and ONERRORDIALOG commands to be supported and also that they can be global like !ERRORIGNORE.
that would really help me.

Re: Feature Requests & Bug Fix Requests. ADD YOURS!
Web Page Dialogs are IE-specific dialogs, they do not exist in Firefox, and therefore the ONWEBPAGEDIALOG command is not needed in iMacros for Firefox.322126384 wrote:I would really like that the ONWEBDIALOG and ONERRORDIALOG commands to be supported and also that they can be global like !ERRORIGNORE.

ONERRORDIALOG is already supported in iMacros for Firefox.

Re: Feature Requests & Bug Fix Requests. ADD YOURS!
Oh sorry Tom i didn't realize that, but there is another thing that i would like the next version of imacros firefox to use:
1. to add POS and/or TYPE to the SEARCH command in case a webpages source has more than one occurence of a specific string.
2. to include IMAGESEARCH in the new vesion.

Re: Feature Requests & Bug Fix Requests. ADD YOURS!
I'm currently using many different macros to purchase a lot of items across the web for my company.
Each one is customized to work with a specific online reseller and it covers login, putting items in the basket, filling forms and then leading me to checkout and payment.
Since I use these macros dozens of times a day, I have seen them frequently stuck after WAIT and PROMPT commands, as you can see in attached screenshot.
I'm currently running:
- iMacros for Firefox 7.3.0.0
- Firefox 5.0.1 32bit and Nightly 8.0a1 64bit
- Windows 7 x64 SP1
As this issue occurs, a simple manual page refresh seems to wake-up iMacros and let it go ahead.

For tricky issues like this, I usually recommend calling your macro using the built-in Javascript scripting interface. That way you can specify a macro timeout value to iimPlay(), then check the return code to determine if the macro took too long and automatically replay it.

thank you for your quick reply, but in fact it doesn't answer to my perplexity related to those "counts to wait for nothing" that always lead to execution quits with the same error.
Of course I can control error events through JS scripting interface, and also do a lot of many other interesting things... but WHY iMacros gets easily lost in those counts with no reason??

Re: Feature Requests & Bug Fix Requests. ADD YOURS!
Can you provide a macro that reliably reproduces the issue? It's probably better to start a new topic for this specific issue rather than clutter up this thread. Or open a support ticket.lanx wrote:Of course I can control error events through JS scripting interface, and also do a lot of many other interesting things... but WHY iMacros gets easily lost in those counts with no reason??

Re: Feature Requests & Bug Fix Requests. ADD YOURS!
a really simple macro example that produces this issue is here just hit loop for like 10 times or so and the error will arise after its gone through the loop a few times..
