Re: Autofill a web page

I have an app that auto fills PDF fillable forms. Uses mySQL or sqLite on the back end. Web forms, not so much. I’ve often wondered if it were possible to analyze a web page for field controls, then fill in the values and reload the page with the new html. The problem is, most web forms these da

As peter said, if you use the rev browser to load the page, then you can use revbrowserexecutescript and some javascript to fill in the form (most likely). On Thu, Jul 9, 2015 at 3:13 PM, Peter Haworth wrote: > Thanks, I'll take a look. > > On Thu, Jul 9, 2015 at 11:41 AM J. Landman Gay > wrote

I'm not sure, I use FireFox. It remembers most things but there is also a plugin for FF that lets you set up autofill for any field containing any type of content. I see a couple of similar extensions in the Chrome store, maybe one of those would work? On 7/9/2015 1:23 PM, Peter Haworth wrote

Right, I've seen several variations of the captcha images including the one you mentioned. I've also seen a variation where you're required to supply the answer to a simple math question. Maybe it's my tired old eyes but anything would be better than the blurry images! On Thu, Jul 9, 2015 at 10:

Right, I'm currently using that in Chrome to fill in my name/address info but there are some other fields that are unique to this web site. Is there a way to have any field auto filled via a profile then? On Thu, Jul 9, 2015 at 10:49 AM J. Landman Gay wrote: > It's not a LiveCode solution, but

It's not a LiveCode solution, but most browsers have an auto fill feature. You could add the field names to your profile and have the browser fill them in for you. On July 9, 2015 12:29:25 PM CDT, Peter Haworth wrote: >My initial thought on this was to render the web page URL in an LC >browse

My initial thought on this was to render the web page URL in an LC browser object, fill in the form's fields with some sort of LC scripting, and send a mouse click action to the form's Submit button. Is that impractical? On Thu, Jul 9, 2015 at 10:25 AM Devin Asay wrote: > > On Jul 9, 2015, at 1

Thanks Devin. I was meaning I wanted to do this in a Livecode app so sounds like there is hope. I will check out the links you sent. Another complication is that the form includes a Captcha code so that will have to be supplied manually. Off topic, but am I the only one that finds the majority
