Hi, all...
Before I go digging around and start trying to code a solution, I'd like
to know if what I'm trying to do is even possible.
I'm trying to automate the downloading of data from a site.
First, I have to go to a login page, enter my username and password,
then I'm taken to the download page.
I click on a link (actually, two for two different downloads), and the
"Run" or "Save" dialog appears. (Win XP Pro)
This links are scripted using Javascript. When a link to download is
clicked, the script opens a window (for what purpose, I don't know...the
download links are in the main page).
I'm wonder if it's even possible to automate the login and download
process using cfhttp or other tag/function.
If it helps to clarify the situation, I've pasted the script from the source
of the page that sets up and controls the download links.
Thanks for any feedback.
Rick
Here's the script:
<script language="JavaScript">
function open_browser( url_str )
{thewindow=window.open( url_str
,"save_listing","width=420,height=350,resizable=no,scrollbars=no,menubar=no,status=no,toolbar=no")}
</script>

'popdown.asp?file=IDX_Custom&acct=XXX');"
onMouseOver="self.status='';return true" onMouseout="window.status
='';return true;">CUSTOM LISTING DATA</a> <small>10/16/2008 5:18:45
