iMacros - Open an iFrame in another tab

How could I open an iFrame in a new tab? I tried using URLCURRENT after selecting the iFrame with "FRAME F = 1" but it did not work.

I think this could be done by using "SEARCH" to search the iFrame code and extract the URL, but I do not know how to do it.

iMacros Firefox (Version 8.9.7)

Solution

  • Here you go...

      'Clear Extraction memory
SET !EXTRACT NULL
  'Using current tab/window
TAB T=1 
  'Extract URL from first IFrame
TAG POS=1 TYPE=IFRAME ATTR=* EXTRACT=HREF  
  'Pass URL to variable
SET iFrameURL {{!EXTRACT}} 
  'Open new Tab/window
TAB OPEN
  'Switch to the new Tab/window 
TAB T=2 
  'Navigate to URL from varable (iframe url)
URL GOTO={{iFrameURL}}

    Modify the POS=1 to the appropriate iframe location if there are multiple iframe... so POS=3 for the 3rd iFrame.

    Please mark this as an answer if this solution helped you. Thanks!
