    [bug] cannot load finance.google.com/finance

    The RoboMaker is unable to load either:

    http://finance.google.com/

    or

    http://finance.google.com/finance

    instead it is trying to load:

    http://finance.google.com/undefined

    which is a 404 not found error.  This appears to be a bug in the RoboMaker (Win Vista running in XP SP2 mode)

    I can actually get this to load when emulating FireFox 2 on Win XP, the default options did not work.

    Re: [bug] cannot load finance.google.com/finance

    well, I'm still having problems submitting forms to the site, even when emulating firefox 2.0.  is it possible to create the initial load url from an input parameter?

     I really just want to scrape a bit of content from http://finance.google.com/finance?q=TICKER where TICKER is provided from user input.  Is this possible?  Seems unnecessary to load the main page and fill out the search bar first.

     

    Thanks,

    Dave

     Hi Dave

    -  "is it possible to create the initial load url from an input parameter?"

    Yes. change the first step to Convert Attribute to append the input to  http://finance.google.com/finance?q= and then load the page in the next step.

    Example: RSS feed for www.mozilla.com
