scion 0 Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 Hey Guys, I'm trying to create a bot that will update stats from cpa networks. I'm having trouble saving a csv download from the network. I've attached a short screen capture that show what i'm doing and where i'm stuck. Thanks Screen Cast Here Quote Link to post Share on other sites
alcr 135 Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 I can't watch the screencast for some reason. "XML-tolkning misslyckades XML-tolkning misslyckades: syntaxfel (Rad: 87, Tecken: 42) Tolka dokument på nytt som HTMLFel:invalid entity reference" Is it just me or does everyone else get this problem?

Seth Turin 223 Posted February 17, 2010 Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 the command you're looking for is "set dialog text". I actually just made a quick tutorial for someone earlier tonight on this very command. what you're doing is slightly different, but the principal is the same. here you go: http://screencast.com/t/YjJjMzhiOT Quote Link to post Share on other sites

This is perfect. Now my addiction to Ubot can continue...lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scion 0 Posted February 17, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2010 Seth, I went ahead and implemented the code as you laid out in your tutorial. It's still not working. I've created another screen cast to show what I'm doing. Hopefully someone can shed some light on this... Screen Cast Quote Link to post Share on other sites
andrewst 1 Posted February 18, 2010 Report Share Posted February 18, 2010 Seth, I tried to duplicate the same thing, I think the issue is that the file/save box is NOT a dialog box, thus ubot has no control over it w/ the click dialog or set dialog. That leaves no way that I can think of to accomplish such a simple task. I'm pretty sure it's not possible, along w/ the host of other things it can't do, I seemany threads w/ the same issue, and no help. http://ubotstudio.com/forum/index.php?/topic/2506-save-text-document/page__hl__filename__fromsearch__1 If you're looking for a cool way to get your affiliate stats though http://www.statsjunky.com/ amongst 4 or 5 other similar services, can download/aggregate all your affiliate stats in 1 place.. but that's pretty much what you'll get here - workarounds, not solutions. (* ps. still bitter over no UA changing, rendering UB completely useless for my purposes over such a trivial matter) Seth, I went ahead and implemented the code as you laid out in your tutorial.

(* ps. still bitter over no UA changing, rendering UB completely useless for my purposes over such a trivial matter) sorry to edit your post, but I don't want people to get confused when they read it. the save window is a dialog box, and the set dialog text should work. if it doesn't, then this might be a bug that I'll need to fix. can one of you guys upload the bot you made to demonstrate the issue?

Seth I can't upload the bot as it's logging into a personal account to download information. But I have included the screen capture above of the issue I'm having. Please let me know if I can give you further information. Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scion 0 Posted February 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2010 Seth, I quickly made another bot that goes to a torrent site and tries to save a torrent. Similar boxes appear. I've uploaded...obviously the object here would be to click save, name the file, save the file. Thanksdialog.ubot Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Seth Turin 223 Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 thanks for making me the bot to test with. I think that what is happening here is that by the time the file dialog comes up, there are actually two dialogs, and ubot doesn't know which one to send information to. unfortunately, this might not be an easy thing to solve. I will need to think of an artful solution. I'll try to implement a fix soon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
webautomationlab 21 Posted February 21, 2010 Report Share Posted February 21, 2010 Being able to save files is a big feature. Seth, I think in iMacros, they access the save-target-as command, instead of using a save command which triggers the intermediary save/open dialog. That might solve the problem of two dialog boxes. My 2 cents. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

webautomationlab 21 Posted February 22, 2010 Report Share Posted February 22, 2010 I knew if I hung around long enough I could become useful. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
