web record

[jjj]

hello,

i was wondering if someone can give me some ideas on created macros using the web recorder. i've done pretty much all my task with windows applications but we are about to purchase a internet solution that i would like AA to perform the data input.

i noticed there are extract data options but how will the web recorder work for identifying text fields or drop downs for an website?

with the windows app's i can declare the window title but how is that done for websites?

thanks
