Script modifing question

[DannaB]

Morning

I love the way eValid mimics other browsers, but why is it that when you are using a script you can only modify the identify of a sub-window?

Thanks

Hey DannaB.

Glad you like eValid!

To answer your question:

The method used by eValid to mimic (imitate) other browsers relies on it being able to adjust some internal settings so that it can change the way it presents itself for response from the server for the web page you're looking at.

The drawback is, the settings changes apply to the NEXT window you open.

So you can apply this change in identity to a NEW WINDOW that your web page opens.

Here is an example of how to use eValid to check how a web page can be viewed in multiple browsers:

The other method is to invoke eValid with the correct settings from the outset. This is done with a batch script that looks like this:

start eValid -AGENT {string for the description of the browser}
exit

You can get the requied string from this public web page:
