Posted: Tue Aug 05, 2008 2:57 pm Post subject: Using Variable in Send Keystroke |
|
|
Hi,
I don't know if what I want to do can be done with Automize (7.43).
I'm trying to save a jsp web page.
http://amex.com/equities/listCmp/FrgEqLCPrint.jsp?Product_Symbol=CEF
That's not possible with the Http: / Web Task, since it's a jsp page.
Being stubborn, I tried the Windows / Open Documents task. That opens the web page in my default browser (happens to be Firefox 3 on this machine). Anyway, I now want to save the file in a folder with today's date for it's name. Typically, I'd use $%DATE::YYppdd%$ plus whatever extension. Is it possible to send the value from variables (system variable, in this case) as Send Keystroke commands?
I suppose I could save it as a single file name, and then rename it with something else. |

The send keys task does not support variables.
I guess you will have to save it as a constant filename. Then use a rename task to append the date. |
