Hi guys, been going around in circles with this so I hope you can help! My current situation is I'm using Grinder and Jython to test pages, but the log on process is giving me some headaches. After entering the correct username and password, you then need to enter 3 characters from the security phrase. I'm attempting to read the HTML to find out with characters I need (e.g. 1st, 3rd and 6th char) then look up those values in the security phrase, but I'm getting stuck on the following function:
<code> def getValue(page,delimEnd) : EndVar = page.find(delimEnd) thisVar = page[EndVar-1:EndVar] return thisVar </code> <unique code I'm using as a delimeter> :</strong></td> <td class="producttableinnerborder"></td> <td></td> <td><select name="char1"> </unique code I'm using as a delimeter> the specific number I require proceeds the ':' at the start of the code. What I'm attemping to pass in is some multiline HTML(above) and pick up the proceeding character, but it seems to be reading from the end of the HTML instead! I've only been using this setup for a couple of days so it's probably something simple, anyone care to enlighten me? cheers, Jon -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
