Personal Macro
#1
I attend a lot of music and sporting events and I am trying to finish making a macro that will allow me to get through the ticketmaster page faster so I can obtain better seats. Here is an example of a macro I have made for this particular event:

https://www.ticketmaster.com/checkout/r ... xyZz-5Uu1A

'Cfreset
'Y
'TY
'TTDTTTTTY

What I want to do is add on to this macro. One thing I would like to do is be able to refresh a ticketmaster page continuously until the event goes on sale. For instance an event goes on sale at 11:00 I want to refresh the ticketmaster page and once the onsale starts my macro runs and fills the form and takes me to ticketmasters word verification page. Is that possible to do?

yes...well, maybe.
you could use the "rep" command to repeat the refresh page but the trick is that you have to find out what is different about the page to make qm start the next part.

you could have it get the page and then look for text strings in the page (see macro entitled "http help").

I agree with Ken. It is possible but would take a lot of testing and debugging. I did something similar (until I found DDNS on my router!). I needed to remotely log into my PC but I don't have a static IP address. I wrote a macro to log onto my router every 10 minutes and parse the IP address out of the HTML code and if it had changed, email it to my web email account. It worked great. It took a lot of testing and a while to write a regular expression to parse the address though. This would take a lot of work but is definently possible.
