What is the difference between %random% and %random_option% (if there is any)?

    %random% does not exists but %random-1-100% which will give you a random number between 1 and 100

    %random_option% will choose a random entry from a selection form box or will create a 2 chars long random word if the form field is no box but a input box.

    thedatahub.ini
    line 58: auto modify=2

    What's the function for variable "2"?
  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de

    0 = don't change anything

    1 = modify content with line breaks and other things

    2 = modify content with line breaks only (and on very long sentences only to make it look better)

  • OzzOzz
    url must have=*://thedatahub.org/*|*://www.thedatahub.org/*

    this needs to be present on static Web 2.0 sites, right? if its not present all crawled URLs which usually can not be identified yet, will be identified as a Web 2.0 with missing "url must have=".
  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de
    yes, should be present for maybe later use.

    Is it helpful for SER to add the "Activation successful"-messages to "submit success=" in [Register_Step1] once an account was approved by email?
  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de
    no, thats only used for form submissions right now.

    can you confirm that recaptcha (or any other captcha) fields don't need to be defined in [Register] and a field like "recaptcha_response_field=%captcha%" is useless once you have defined all other fields and disable "set unknown variable=%leave%"?
  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de
    yes, recaptcha as well as adcopy and adscaptcha are handled automatically. No need to define that.
  • OzzOzz
    good to know :D

    this is fixing one of my bugs to test new engines. GSA logged "captcha not solvable by service" in those cases.
  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de
    Yes might be because you only use CS as captcha system?
  • OzzOzz
    no, for testing i use shanibpo as 2nd service only
  • OzzOzz
    Is there a way to limit %random_options% to specific number or range if the field has multiple checkboxes?

    I'm asking just of curiosity, because I scripted a Web 2.0 which is working to some point (finally!!). However, the languages my character can speak are...

    Languages spoken: English, Cantonese, Mandarin, Japanese, German, Itallian, Burmese, Shanghainese, Vietnamese

    BTW, I want to use this engine for another tutorial how to script Web 2.0's. 
  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de
    hmm you can use also the direct value like ..=English or if the values or captions of that form variable are numbers you can also use %random-X-Y% (X=min, Y=max). But the random_option is really only choosing something randomly.

    thx, it's not that important anyway. i was just asking for the case it might come in handy. i don't know, if this case exists (probably never) :)

    Is this a "form id=" or not? this form is labeled as "form class=signup_form_login_lb".
  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de

    The "form id" is really only the id="xyz" in the form tag.  The name="xyz" is used for the "form name" variable in the following way:

    form name=<name> - <button caption>

    or

    form name=FORMX - <button caption> if no "name=" is used in that form (X represents the form position on that website 1,2,3...).

    i do not get this
    web=%url_domain%%url_path%%url_parameters%

    Is it the same as web=%url%?   

    any different?
  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de
    it is skipping http:// and https:// as that is probably not wanted here.

    I need to extract password, often in different language ex. of email

    login: %login%
    password: %password%


    login: %login%
    haslo: %password%


    [pass_pw]
    type=extract
    front1=%login%
    front2=\n
    front3=.*:
    back1=\n
    back2=<
    remove html=1
    static=1

    Not working, is it possible to handle that?
  • andrzejekandrzejek Polska
    front1=: %login%

    to match better in case there is "welcome %login%" 
  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de
    have alook in the drupal - blog engine. I used that : %login

    Can you implement things like that ex. xrumer http://pastebin.com/WY4gWbKU
    • 0 - a reference to lowercase,
    • 1 - a reference as it is in the HTML -code,
    • 2 - link with the anchor text in the lower register,
    • 3 - The text before the link (introduced in XRumer 7.7.42),
    • 4 - reference parameter «ID» (introduced in XRumer 7.7.42),
    • 5 - setting the reference «CLASS» (introduced in XRumer 7.7.42)

    AddLinkRule ([1, 'board,',
    1, '. 0.htm',
    1, 'action', false
    ], URL_TOVIEW);
    This rule specifies the program that all the references that contain «board» and «.0.htm«, but do not contain «action» - are on view in this section of the forum.

    something to ignore forms: http://pastebin.com/wEtvutwq

    {IN_FORM}type="submit" name="lostpwsubmit"
    ?task=edit_profile&done=avatar
  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de
    even though it looks good, I don't see much use in this. XRummer seems to do all this checking for any submission. Even for engines not being part of the definition. This costs time and resources and I don'T see any advantage (except for form class parsing).
  • andrzejekandrzejek Polska
    Good points, and yes class/id seems ok.

    Will that work?

    [variable]
    type=memo
    must be filled=1
    default=1

    try to continue without verification=%variable%
  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de
    will not work as macros are not resolved in this. 
  • andrzejekandrzejek Polska
    easycalccheck=%question% <label for='easycalccheck'>;<input

    can you explain how that works?
  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de
    this will extract the question text between <label for='easycalccheck'> and <input. If you do not specify anything behind %question%, it is trying to get that automatically (test between two input fields).
  • andrzejekandrzejek Polska
    Can you explain how mathematic captchas are solved?
    E.x i wonder how ser will perform on + and - signs in different languages like example of question:

    400 plus 200 equals (english)
    400 dodac 200 rowne (polish)
    etc.

    And how we can modify them 
  • SvenSven www.GSA-Online.de
    Have a look in the file calc_replace.dat. A question is extracted, chars in it are replaced with that data and then a math task as 1 + 2 is searched for. If found, its a math to be solved for it.
