UBotBuddy 331 Posted January 3, 2011 Report Share Posted January 3, 2011 zap, I am checking on a couple of possibilities here but here is what I did. Basically, I did what you documented. I then navigated to another site in a thread and pasted the clipboard to a textbox that I knew could take that data. I then scraped that page and voila it was in my Bot. I know that is VERY much around the block, down the street and then back again. But hopefully, we will determine a more productive and easier path. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
UBotBuddy 331 Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 zap, Check this bot out. I am still not happy with it and I am still working to find a more elegant way of accomplishing this.copy-n-paste.ubot 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

UBotBuddy 331 Posted January 5, 2011 Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 Thanks! I am still trying to shorten my goal and maybe process via a sub window but it has not been cooperating. lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pete 121 Posted January 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 botbuddy Nice find but I feel a command is needed within ubotBut it must be complex to implement as I can’t see such a simple command being overlooked,Also we are on the edge of the software intended design webpage control not windows control As it stands at the moment I will stick with the html file on my hard drive and nav to that as its working I see little point in fixing one work around for anotherYou seem to have spent a fair amount of time on this thanks for that Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bot-Factory 602 Posted March 5, 2011 Report Share Posted March 5, 2011 Hi. Copy & Paste is exactly what I need for some websites. My main problem with this workaround is, that I have to stay on the page where I have to paste the stuff. I have to read 3 files.1. Read file 1 to clipboard2. Paste into field 1 of website3. Read file 2 to clipboard4. Paste into field 2 of website5. Read file 3 to clipboard6. Paste into field 3 of website So I can't use the write to browser function. This would navigate me away from the page. It would work for the first paste command. But we only have 1 clipboard, so how can I get text2 and text3 into the clipboard without navigating away from the website. I tried to run it in a separate browser window, but that doesn't work. If someone has an idea, that would be really great. Thanks in advanceDan Quote Link to post Share on other sites
