Hi Tom,
I found htmltext gave me html not just text.
I tried the following, and it yielded a lot of formatting junk, plus some
useable text.
set the HTMLText of field “MyTestTextField" to the HTMLtext of widget
“MyWebBrowser"
Bob is correct about javascript variable contents not coming
It seems to me that in order for the browser widget to DISPLAY all the text,
even in Javascript objects, it must KNOW what the text is. If it KNOWS, maybe
there is a way to update the widget to make that information available in a
property?

I get the web page text, but not any of the values in the fields, nor even any
of the body text. I think that is because the page I am looking at is Java
based. I'd LOVE to figure out a way to get THAT text as it would make my job of
backing up copier data during installs MUCH quicker.

Rick,
try the htmltext property instead of text. I just tested it, it works and
text does not.

Hi Keith,
Yes, I have tried that several times and ways. It doesn’t seem to work.
One would think that would work fine.
Other ideas?
Thanks,
Rick

Hi Rick,
Maybe try 'put the text of widget "youtBrowserName" into field "yourFieldName"
' to get the plain text? If you need the html source, try '...the htmlText' of
widget...
Best,
Keith
