Hi,

I'm trying to insert a username as a variable into a webrecorder script but I can't get it to work, is this possible. The script works already but I would like the option of changing login details via an ini file?.

Thx,

John

Should be possible.

Please post your code for review.

Yes it is possible. Use the ReadIniFile command to read the variable from the INI file. Replace the literal used in your WebRecorder code with the name of the variable.

I have this at the beginning of the script:
ReadIniFile>z:\websites login.ini,url,parm1,StrName
Let>username=StrName

THis is what I have in the webrecorder part:
Let>FrameName={""}
Let>FormName={"aspnetForm"}
Let>FieldName={"ctl00$deContent$AppLogin_3b5$txtEmail"}
Let>FieldValue={"username"}
IE_FormFill>%IE[0]%,str:FrameName,str:FormName,str:FieldName,str:FieldValue,0,r

It is just inserting 'username' on the web page.

Thx,

John

{"username"} is a literal string.

Change your first bit to:

ReadIniFile>z:\websites login.ini,url,parm1,StrName

And the WR part to:

Let>FrameName={""}
Let>FormName={"aspnetForm"}
Let>FieldName={"ctl00$deContent$AppLogin_3b5$txtEmail"}
Let>FieldValue=StrName
IE_FormFill>%IE[0]%,str:FrameName,str:FormName,str:FieldName,str:FieldValue,0,r

Or just:

Let>FrameName={""}
Let>FormName={"aspnetForm"}
Let>FieldName={"ctl00$deContent$AppLogin_3b5$txtEmail"}
IE_FormFill>%IE[0]%,str:FrameName,str:FormName,str:FieldName,str:StrName,0,r
