Posted on by Miyuki

Hi, All

After I used "web recorder", I changed fixed words into variable.

But input words in a "text box" weren't left.

I checked some websites about the procedure and they were the same.

Furthermore I tried just recorded flow by "web recorder", it occurred the same thing.
How do I correct this procedure?

If someone know how to resolve this, please teach me that.

Hello
After testing with populate fields, I came to the conclusion that it wont work that way.
Only way I could get it to work is using "send keys", which is not ideal.
Being Danish, I had some difficulties reading the text, but thanks to google I think I got it ‌‌😊

Hello, Highboy

Do you concern me? That's so sweet of you!
You don't need to follow up me. Because I could resolve this issue based on your advise.
If you read the following my reply and concerned me, I'm sorry that I wrote misleading comments.
It was my condition before I got your advise(=Paste below into PAD).
