Featured Firefox Extension: Script repetitive actions with iMacros
Posted by 1337g33k on July 16, 2007
If you’re doing something over and over again in your browser, this is definitely worth a look….
Windows/Mac/Linux
(Firefox): Free extension iMacros records and runs macros – or scripted
sets of keystrokes and mouse clicks – directly within Firefox. The
potential uses for web macros are only limited by your imagination; for
example, you could automatically navigate into your bank’s web site and
to export your latest statement, fill out forms or make web snippets.
Record macros visually using the iMacros interface or code them
manually using the iMacros IDE.
iMacros has all the fixin’s of a great macro recorder, with click
where, click when, sleep, and the ability to send mouse strokes and
keyboard strings. Windows users get most of this functionality with AutoHotKey.
However, if you’re looking to record platform-independent macros
specifically for Firefox within Firefox, iMacros will treat you right.
iMacros comes with several prefab demo macros to get you started.
Additionally, iMacros makes it easy to share your macros. iMacros is a
free download for all platforms with Firefox. Thanks, Rob!
