Hi,
I have been unable to automate the JSON script that I have pasted below. It fails at 2 places. I have put comments those places so that these are easy to find.
A menu opens up where 3 parameters have to be given as input.
- For the “Indicator” parameter: There is a step where all the options that are displayed have to be selected. CTRL-A is not possible so we need to right-click and “Select All” in the webpage specific context menu. Please note that this not the browser menu.
- For the “Time” menu, the input box accepts the “-24” value (this shows that the xpath is correct), but the Range should change to since “1 January 1994”. This does not happen. It is as if the negative number in the input box does not take effect.
I am hoping that even if the above is not possible by conventional means that at least I be provided with a hack so as to accomplish the above by passing javascript in storeEval.
Thank you.
Here is the JSON.
