Hello everyone..new user here. I am fairly new to AA and have used it successfully a few times. However I am trying to extract data from a website and I am having problems with the website not responding at times. I keep adding delays but that is making my task too slow. I have played a little with the "Wait for windows to change" option but no luck. I read in the help the option of an IE plugin that waits for website to load before continuing, but beside that I do not find any other mention on how to get that going. Would some one please enlighten me? Thanks in advanced. |

Usually AA will wait for pages to load before moving onto the next command... and manually setting a delay isn't necessary at all. There are no settings that need to be set to do this... it just does it on it's own. I have not heard anything about a "plugin" for IE to do this... but I haven't been using AA for that long. If you can share the website here I can have a look at it. The only time I could see there being issues is when content on the page is loaded asynchronously (using AJAX) and is not loaded with the initial page load. |

Thanks for the response. Actually, AA does not wait and at times the program continues and tries to enter information when the page has not changed yet. I looked for help on "Wait" or "delay" and it came up on the help section. But I looked into it a little more and it appears to be as part of a future update. I am sorry I cannot post the website as it is confidential/sensitive information. thanks. |

Hello, You can also create the custom delay. For e.g. if particular control on webpage takes little extra time to load then you can put up a loop to wait until that particular web control exsists. Loop while web control does not exist Delay: [500ms] End Loop //Followed by commands to enter information on webpage Hope that helps. |
