Below, I've created just the first part of the login iMacros script by recording via these steps (the values are gibberish here just for demonstrating the issue I'm seeing):
- Left mouse single-click inside the "email" form field.
- Type nonsense characters "asdfasdfa" (without double-quotes)
- Type CTRL-A
- Type BACKSPACE
- Type in the real email address of "something" (without double-quotes)
Code: Select all
VERSION BUILD=8300326 RECORDER=FX
TAB T=1
URL GOTO=https://www.facebook.com/
EVENT TYPE=CLICK SELECTOR="#email" BUTTON=0
EVENTS TYPE=KEYPRESS SELECTOR="#email" CHARS="asdfasdfa"
EVENT TYPE=KEYPRESS SELECTOR="#email" KEY=8
EVENTS TYPE=KEYPRESS SELECTOR="#email" CHARS="something"
Under iMacros, Recording tab, Record Options, I have Experimental Recording Mode checked. I reason this is a correct setting because I want all keystrokes to be punched in just as if I had typed them myself, and I expect CTRL-A to be handled likewise. But I suspect iMacros is not handling that key binding as I expect. Why?
Just in case there is an interaction with other extensions below is the full list of installed addons via the Extension List Dumper:

This is running on 32-bit Firefox running on a 64-bit Linux system, but that should not be relevant (I hope not!).
Thanks,
