DOM Values

[pv56]

Can one eValid instance read another eValid instance's DOM values? I need to move DOM values from one context to another...any ideas?

As you may know, each eValid instance is a separate executable in Windows, so the simplest way for one eValid instance to send data to another is via the Windows file system.

You can do this with commands like IndexSave "filename" and ValueSave "filename" after you've used the IndexFindElement command to set the internal sourceIndex pointer to a particular value.

In effect you use "filename" on the local machine to communicate between the two [or more] eValid instances.

What if I want to save data from one page and insert (not only compare) that value in another one ?

example:
URL1 return a session number
URL2 is sth like http://mysite/mypage?session=session-number

This also is quite possible and not too difficult to do. The "trick" is to employ the local machine as the temporary repository of page details.

There's an example worked out at this URL:

This example details the "value setting loop" that involves extracting, processing, and re-inserting values into the page. Please us know if this answers your question?
