darkwarrior Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 Hi, Im new to autoit and am trying to find a way to detect new changes in web content before using a third-party software to take a screen shot of the window. How can I go about doing this?
water Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 Welcome to AutoIt and the forum!Read the web content, create a hash, repeat this after a period of time and compare the two hashes. If they changed then the web content has changed.Or do you have specific changes in mind?

darkwarrior Posted September 23, 2015 Author Posted September 23, 2015 Thank you!For instance, changes in the web page due to the scrolling of up and down. The screen capture will take place at the first half of the web page and when I scroll down to the second half of the page, the screen will be captured again.

water Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 Did you have a look at all those screen capture tools available? A lot of them allow to capture web pages by grabbing all the content. I know because I use Greenshot for this purpose.

But I just want to take screen capture based on that particular window and from there, take the next following window after scrolling it down, however, to do this, is there a way for autoit to identify the change in window?
