Re: Open a new tab from address bar in google chrome

Easy. If you're already typing in the address bar and decide you want the results to open in a new tab: Ctrl+a followed by Ctrl+c followed by Ctrl+t followed by Ctrl+v followed by Enter! Here's my quick-n-dirty script for when I occasionally need to open whatever I just typed in the address bar in ...

Re: Open a new tab from address bar in google chrome

Huh. I never noticed this. My first response was, 'well, why couldn't you just do Ctrl+Enter to open in a new tab??' Tried it. Didn't work. I love your script, but don't think I would want to have the page opening in a new tab every time. Most of the time it's perfectly fine to use the same tab. Wo...

Re: Examples of GUI for inputting text into text field

I would try to use something like an incremental listbox for something like this (speaking as a former medical transcriptionist! ;) ) I used this script for a job I had a while back where I had to look up info for various countries. (Sorry, IDK who originally wrote this script, I just found it here ...

Re: Send Text Slowly Only to Specific Windows

But if I make a window group for the slow apps, won't I have to duplicate my entire hotstring list into this group?

Send Text Slowly Only to Specific Windows

I have a few windows that jumble up the hotstrings or text from a script when Sending. I normally use SendMode, Input (with no SetKeyDelay), and I like that setting for 90% of the apps I use. However, some places, like Excel and CodeQuickTester, for example, it's a mess and I usually have to go back...

Javascript RunJsFromChromeAddressBar(js) -- can I Have Multiple Options for a Command?

In the site that I work with, most pages have a "Back" button to return to the customer's main page. However, on some pages, the javascript id could be Toolbar_btCancel , and on others, it could be Toolbar_bkBack , and on still others, it could be ToolbarHeader_CustomerHeader1_lnkReturnToCustomer . ...

Re: Not getting wb.document.links.length property

Hey SpaceMoth ... RunJsFromChromeAddressBar really isn't as scary as it looks. Even **I** have been able to get it to work! :D But here's a really simple script that doesn't even need RunJsFromChromeAddressBar -- you just enter it in the address bar & it clicks the link on the page with the text you...

Re: Can I Download All Invoices w/o going to sub pages?

The links actually open in the same page (which is also a PITA) & don't automatically get downloaded. I also do more tasks with the information on each page other than just download the pdf (& I don't always want to download all of them). I guess I forgot to mention that in my initial post. I also s...

Can I Download All Invoices w/o going to sub pages?

Hey everyone ... I have finally gotten my head wrapped around using javascript in the address bar in Chrome, and I've been having a lot of success (yay me!) ... This is a sample page from one of the billing sites that I work from. As you can see, it separates a customer's invoices by year -- and I h...

Re: Weird HotString Behavior

I call it spaghetti code because it just seems really messy to me compared to a lot of the more seasoned coders I see on here ... I love the nice, concise scripts others post, but it seems like I can never simplify mine to that point. Of course, I'm still a noob, even though I've been using AHK, jav...

Re: Weird HotString Behavior

ohhh...I actually use those braces so I can collapse the scripts ... makes my page of scripts look so much more tidy. :D yes, when my hotstring fires, it backspaces & deletes the "short" before expanding. but then after expansion, when I hit space/enter/tab, etc., it's backspacing again and deleting...

Re: Weird HotString Behavior

Thanks mikeyww. You've given me a lot to work on!

You mean I don't need braces on loops & if/else statements? or were you just referring to the ones around the whole script?
