Break at new website

[macmastermac]

Hi,

I've been looking for a script that stops the script once the website link has changed.
I only found a few amount on threads here about them and they confuse me. They're made so complicated when all I want seems so simple.

My idea was like:

Code: Select all

^j::

Loop,
{
Send, {LButton}
Sleep, 60000
}

^g::Pause
^z:ExitApp

And somewhere in that code, if let's say, youtube.com changed to youtube.com/explore, the script ends...
But where, and how?

Here is an easy method that looks to see whether the window title has changed.

Code: Select all

#IfWinActive ahk_exe chrome.exe
^j::
SoundBeep, 1500
SetTimer, Check, 60000
Check:
last := wTitle
WinGetActiveTitle, wTitle
If (last > "" && wTitle != last) {
 SetTimer,, Off
 SoundBeep, 1000
} Else Click
Return
#IfWinActive

Hi,

Thanks I tried this. But it isn't exactly working like I thought. If I am at like youtube.com and type in the search bar some text, or hover my cursor over a video and it plays a little, the script ends... While still being on the same website

What I was looking for is if you are at let's say youtube.com/subscriptions and the URL changes to youtube.com/explore, then the script ends!

(Sorry if I double posted my previous post is missing?)

OK. You may need others to chime in here about a better solution to meet your need. You can get the URL "manually" through sending sequences such as !d^c, but there may also be faster or more reliable ways through the Chrome.ahk library or other approaches. Simply using the clipboard is probably not the way to go here.
