Hi all,
i am just trying out your remo software and am trying in vain to get a macro to work.
this is what i need to do:
i would like to sign up for an account ant filelist,org, but everytime i go there, it tells me to check back later with this message:#
(http://www.filelist.org/signup.php)
current user account limit (0) has been reached. Inactive accounts are pruned all the time, please check back again later...
Now,
How would i go about making a macro that would loop this page over and over again until that line of text dissappeared, it would be neat if i could have an audio alert when this page was changed to a different one not containing that text.
I have been trying to do this all morning now, but have so far had no success- i have read through the help file, but i`m afraid this is a bit above my head.
could anyone please help?
many thanks
steven

Re: could someone help me with making a basic macro?
Use WebRecorder which helps you build scripts to automate IE. It has a function called ContainsText. So it would be easy to make a script that goes to the site and and signs up and then uses ContainsText to see if the page contains the message you quoted. If so, it loops back and repeats ...steve10001 wrote:Hi all,

Or, if you don't want to use WebRecorder you could do the check with the text capture functions and see if the browser contains said text. If so, loop round.
