Hi all,
I've been working on a script for the past few weeks to automate the submittal of ebay items, using a Filemaker Pro database, and IE. Everything seems to work except for submitting the html containing the description text.
At first I had to escape the quote marks using a backslash to get the script to compile, now it compiles but it only works when I omit the variable representing the description text. IE will otherwise report "some data could not be read"
I tried to use the Encode URL osax at
http://www.infomotions.com/tricks/manuscript/1880-0003.html however this didn't solve the problem.
I uploaded my script and associated FMP database to
http://www.speakeasy.org/~mholland/AS/ebayauto.sit I wasn't sure if there was an acceptable limit for lengths of posts, so I'm playing the safe route by letting you download it.
For context this is for selling vinyl records. (on my way down from a 6 year dj hobby/career)
Thanks in advance for all help!
