Xpath Builder Pro V2.0 Update.
Take a look here in the EXB FB Group:
https://www.facebook.com/groups/ExBrowserPlugin/ -
Hi, sorry if this has already been discussed - I didn't see it in the documentation and couldn't find anything in the thread - it's possible I overlooked it somewhere though.
Is there a way to prevent the firefox update prompt from showing? ( https://share.getcloudapp.com/L1uYBy5w )
I've searched for various fixes, and have implemented a handful. I tried changing various settings in about:config, including setting app.update.silent to true, changing app.update.url to a non-existent URL, and setting app.update.doorhanger to false.
I also tried updating the prefs.js file with:
user_pref("app.update.auto", false);
user_pref("app.update.disable_button.showUpdateHistory", false);
user_pref("app.update.enabled", false);
And moving these three files:
update-settings.ini,
updater.ini,
updater.exe
It's strange because if I open the firefox executable manually it doesn't show the update notification anymore, but when run through ExBrowser, the popup still shows immediately.
Any idea on what setting(s) to use to hide it?
Thanks in advance
Hi.
You could use FF portable.
For those settings it depends on how you configured them. EXB will use a new FF profile, so if you changed those settings manually in FF, it won't work.
You would need to either specify that with EXB as options, or you create a FF profile with those settings and then tell EXB to load that profile.
PS: Version 2.0 will take care of browser updates automatically. And will be updated frequently, to support latest browsers.
So that problem will go away with V2.0 completely.
Kindest regards

Is there a way to zoom in and out on exbrowser?
I tried like this below but it didnt work
plugin command("ExBrowser.dll", "ExBrowser Send Special Key", "x://body", "CTRL + Text", "+")
Hi.
Zoom is a browser / OS function. All commands we send via EXB are sent to the website to control and work with the HTML website.
You can't send commands to the browser (chrome / FF) application itself. That's not going to work.
So if the website would support a zoom feature via javascript, then yes, that would work. Like clicking a button to zoom.
But if you try to use the windows / browser toom feature, then NO, that can't be controlled via EXB.

Why do you post same question multiple times?
Also on the EXB Facebook group? Post at one place and then give it a couple of days for people to respond.
If you post that much in multiple places it can get a bit.. well... pushy..

Xpath Expressions.
If your Xpath Expressions do NOT start with // at the beginning,
it is very important to use x: at the start of the expression.
Otherwise the Xpath expression might not be recognized correctly!
And just to remind everyone.
x: or expressions who start with // are handled the same way!
If your expression starts with something like (//, you HAVE TO use x:(// or it will fail!
x: will look into all frames and iframes to find the elementz: will only look into the current frame / iframe.
Always ensure that your xpath expression only selects one element (Hint: element counter function to check)Otherwise you might interact with the wrong element here.
Cheers

Might be that the Chrome guys changed something with an update. If they decided that it can't be disabled anymore, then there is nothing we can do about it.
Need to check it.
But if you didn't update your browser and still use the 70.x that is supported, then this should work just fine. I'll test this when I'm the office tomorrow.

ExBrowser Updates!
Are there any Commands or Functions in the current version, where something is not clear or not working?
And I mean this in a more general way. Not problems you have with an individual website.
More like commands who are complicated to use. Where stuff could be simplified. Or where you need 3 commands all the time to archive something, that could be simplified?
I'm currently looking at everything and try to figure out what can be optimized and simplified. So if you have something in mind, please share it here.
Thank you

Anyone help me, how to use authenticated proxies using firefox in exbrowser, tried various firefox addons but failed
1. First try it manually. Find something that works.
2. Then look into automation.
3. Proxy with authentication and firefox was always tricky.
4. Maybe look into a system wide proxy / vpn solution. So you can route the traffic via a local proxy 127.0.0.1 and that service then authenticates and redirects to your "real "proxy.
But keep in mind, that wouldn't work for multithreading. Or only if that tool would have multiple ports locally
Hope this helps a bit.

Hi Guys,I wrote some infos on the upcoming V2.0 Version. Will have some more details very soon.CheersDan -
October, waiting for the new release````
i have one problem to solve google recaptcha with exbrowser.
with normal browser, i can solve google recaptcha manually easy
but with exbrowser ,manually too, it would ask me try again though i solve the recpatcha correctly. i test it for many times, and with full installation chrome/firefox and portable chrome/firefox
Google Recaptcha is designed to prevent automation. So... it's very likely that they have ways to detect automation. There is no way around that.
Multilogin has some tools and ways to protect that and make it harder. But even then, it's not impossible for websites to detect stuff.
Just imagine how many engineers google has to fight something. And how many engineers we have here.
So first of all, you should always look into your business model and check if you're maybe at risk with what you are doing.
I wrote an article about that here:
https://www.bot-factory.com/is-your-business-at-risk/
Because if you automate websites to make money, and you rely on not being detected.. You might be out of business very quickly.
There are many legal ways to automate stuff. So always be very careful when you do something grayhat, and rely on that money.
So.. that being said. You can also look into captcha automation. There are some tools out there, who solve v3 captchas in a slightly different way.
I looked at this couple of months ago. So I'm not 100% up2date on the latest technology here. But I might take a look at that and make a tutorial for V2.0
If you want to hide stuff, you can also look at:
Pretty expensive tool, so not for everyone. But I'm currently working on supporting that in V2.0.

Any updates planned for this? I can't get certain websites to load in it.
No, because most of the time it makes no sense to use the internal browser. The websites who don't work in that browser, probably are bigger websites who have optimized code for different browser versions anyways.
So the xpath you generate within the Xpath Builder Pro browser engine, might not work in Chrome or firefox, because the website shows different (optimized) html code for the particular browser.
So I always recommend to copy the html code of the element from the browser you are really using to xpath builder pro, and use it to build the expression that way.
Please watch the following video, where I explain that process:

Guys,
I'm going to discuss some ExBrowser 2.0 Stuff over in the Facebook group:
https://www.facebook.com/groups/ExBrowserPlugin/
Need to have it somewhere in one place.
So here, on my blog, via email, support forum and facebook.
Would be to much to have it everywhere. So I decided to do it in the Facebook Group.
So if you're interested in the new pricing structure, beta plans and features, join us here:https://www.facebook.com/groups/ExBrowserPlugin/
Cheers

OMG, i got you now lol.
Even if i use the same copy of the profile it should work?
Let me try it!
Thanks
Yes you can copy it, It's just that the files are locked from the windows operating system because the chrome process accesses it. Then another process can't access the same files for read/write access.

Every instance of Chrome needs it's own profile. Otherwise it doesn't work. Chrome can't load the same profile from multiple browsers.
Give that a try and see if that works better then.
