Clicking random search result

[flexfanatic]

I created a simple template that will enter a search term pulled from a text file (one line) places it in the search field and then clicks the submit button.

Would I need to configure is randomly clicking one of the returned search results links (one of the returned on the first page). Anyone know the syntax for doing this.

You should find some common search criterias for these links to find them and use random in the match field to click on the random. Knocking me on skype if I explain something isn't clear.

I'm not sure what you mean. Say I do a search term for white diamonds. It then displays 10 results and I need to automate a click on one of them. Using project maker I can click on a link which is fine but now I need to randomize it. Can I do a search for "http://" and then do a random click on the results?

that link should have a match from 0 to 9 or something. Just put a macro randomizing and int between 0 and 9 and paste it on the match field

But what about the other attribute values? For example for group# I have value of 0, Attribute name href, Attribute value www\.google\.com, Search type regexp, and match# {-Random.Int-|-0-|-9-}

go to search results and get dom, put it to regex builder and find what all search results have in common...
that is what you need in search table.

Exactly as drvosjeca said you should find something common in all of links. If it is not possible to find similar by one criteria, add another one criteria with the same group number such way, that both criterias make necessary results.

I must say that I'm impressed. Not only did you help with clicking the random results but you actually made the template run better.
