Firefox fails to record simple login Macro; IE works
Firefox fails to record a simple login macro here:
http://providentcu.org/index.asp?i=home
The recording stops after entering user ID. Not even EVENT mode works.
IE records the login fine though (and the recorded macro works in FF).
I have experienced this issue several times (FF fails but OK with IE).
I used: FF v47.0; iMacros v8.9.7; WIN7-64bit
EDIT: Also doesn't work with PaleMoon v25.7.3 (x86) & iMacros v8.8.2.1

Re: Firefox fails to record simple login Macro; IE works
Try the following (don't click on "Remember me".):
1. Enter a login name ("test"),
2. Press sign on,
3. Enter a password,
4. Press sign on again,
Here is what is recorded (default "Auto" mode):
There is nothing recorded after the first click on "sign on" (step 2)
1. Enter a login name ("test"),

Re: Firefox fails to record simple login Macro; IE works
Hi,
Thank you for using iMacros. I was able to reproduce the problem you have encountered and have opened a ticket for our development team to work on. Our development team shall look into having a fix for this issue in our future release. Kindly use the IE add-on as a solution until then. We apologize for the inconvenience caused.
Regards,
Shital, iMacros Support

It doesn't work. You only confirmed that FF can record the username and "Remember me". Please see my instructions above.techimac wrote:works for me in FIrefox

Try in other system.

Re: Firefox fails to record simple login Macro; IE works
What other system? It works in IE but not FF or PaleMoon (which is based on FF).techimac wrote:Try in other system.
iMacros tech support also confirmed (see post above by Shital).
If you are able to record the full sequence in FF as I wrote above above (steps 1-4), please post the recorded results.

Re: Firefox fails to record simple login Macro; IE works
You need to add it yourself.viking wrote:I have never seen iMacros record a WAIT command. How did that happen?
First observe how web page responds after clicking element and make changes accordingly.
Whole script cant be done in single record every time.

Re: Firefox fails to record simple login Macro; IE works
I see. Well, the point of my post was to illustrate that FF cannot record this simple login macro, but that IE can do that.techimac wrote:You need to add it yourself.viking wrote:I have never seen iMacros record a WAIT command. How did that happen?

If IE can do it, I assume that it would be possible to fix the FF extension so that FF also works with a single recording.
Furthermore, if i need to insert a long wait command with FF, I prefer to use the IE recording which doesn't require such.
Re: Firefox fails to record simple login Macro; IE works
wait command is optional.
I added it myself because didn't tested how page responds after first sign on click
