i ran into that a couple times, try this

set condition no

loop while condition = no

if element exist set condition to yes

dont ask me why

but setting your loop to look for something always sems to fail

also ad a 1 sec delay before testing for condition

This might look a little more complicated than what you're trying to do, but it accomplishes what stanf mentioned.  I've had the same issue before as well.  I've tackled the issue a variety of ways, but what stanf mentioned works 99% of the time.

 

All we're doing is saying

while #triggerCondition=0, Loop.

In the loop -

-we're looking for a sample of HTML using regex.

-If that sample is found, it is set as variable #regexFound

-If #regexFound contains that HTML sample

-we set #triggerCondition=1

Which halts the Loop

 

I'm sure there is a more pragmatic way to do this same thing, probably cleaner too, but that's just not my style

 

uBot Code below, followed by screenshot of uBot Nodes + brief step-by-step explanation.  

 

 

 

set(#triggerCondition,0,"Global")
navigate("https://ubotstudio.com/site/playground-simple-form/","Wait")

loop while(#triggerCondition = 0) {
    set(#regexFound,$find regular expression($document text,"value.*Submit"),"Global")
    if($contains(#regexFound,"value=\"Submit")) {
        then {
            set(#triggerCondition,1,"Global")
        }
        else {
            alert("Regex Not Found!  Continuing Loop...")
            stop script
        }
    }
}

Try this

loop while($comparison($find regular expression(#website,#website),"!= Does not equal",$nothing)) {
    wait(5)
    click(<innertext="Next">,"Left Click","No")
}

do you find that searching for the lack of nothing

works better than searching for something?

i hope my question is clear.
