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

1. Please review the list of FAQ's.

Yep..., I've approved your Post/Thread because no Spam and your Post/Thread is correctly formulated with FCI but there are already 2 Threads on the Forum about your Pb (with Solution/Explanation...), there was no real need to start a new Thread, search the Forum a bit... :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...

Yep I know, it's all mentioned already in the 2 other Threads... Did you locate them btw...? One was just the next Thread in line after yours on the same Sub-Forum, I've just bumped it and referred to your Thread, so you should find it easily...

I didn't completely pay attention but there is stg a bit unclear about your FCI, as you mention using iMacros for FF v8.8.7 which is fairly old (about 1 year old maybe), Current Version is v8.9.4 and TechSup will always ask you to first update to the latest Current Version... But you'll encounter the same Pb in this Current Version as well, and in v9.0 Beta as well.

v8.9.4 works until FF43 and is broken in FF44. (But for the last 15 FF Versions, nearly each new FF Version broke stg in iMacros for FF.)

Could you clarify/confirm which Version you are really using...? (And not which Version you were using when you created your Script...)

Hello, this issue is fixed. iMacros was using an obsolete js construction which they seem to have finally removed in Firefox v44

The new version V8.9.6 is not yet approved by Mozilla, but you can download it already from the version page:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefo ... sion-8.9.6

Or: Use our shiny new iMacros Version 9.0 Beta 1

And: Happy Holidays :D
