UBot Underground

Can't click on a link to download, may be javascript


Recommended Posts

I am using 4.0.48 and an trying to build a bot. Essentially the bot logs into a website, and needs to download a file. When I get to what I want to download there is a view option and a download option. When I drag the download option to create a new node, the code it grabs is:

 

<a href="javascript:void(0);" onclick="openWin('/semail/views/view_file.jsp?mailId=0&index=0&ext=html&action=download')">Download</a>

 

When I run the node, nothing happens. When I click manually in ubot, nothing happens. Same goes for when I click on the view option. Any advice would be supper appreciated.

 

Thanks!

Could you post the site you're having issues on?

Unfortunately I can't publicly. Not secret spy stuff, just I don't want to attract any attention to myself. I may just have to hire a more experienced uboter for this unless I can tell you privately.

If I sent you the bot would you be able to look at it and see for yourself? I got some advice from a fellow ubotter that I should use 3.5 for this because 4.0 is just not able to right now. It's fine, but I really like working in 4.0, couldn't really stand 3.5 just used it when I had to, but 4.0 is so much easier for me to work with.

It looks like from your code it's trying to open a popup window which is blocked by UBot. If you want to send me the bot I can take a look at it and see what you can do.

my thought exactly on why popups should be optional for the ubot user. not hard coded into the programing to have popups off by default.

Yes, I have seen how it is manually done, and yes, it does open a popup when done manually. So that is the issue TJ, ubot 4 does not allow popups and it can't be over rides? I would think that this should be a priority to resolve because many sites that people would want to ubot do have some sort of popup. I guess it is disabled because of advertising popups? In this case, TJ's suggestion is the right one, have it be a manual option like how visibility is a manual option to turn on or off.
