hi there,
I've been trying for hours to work with the results from the find-command.
I've got it working more or less in the twill-shell, like so:
go http://somepage.com
find "sometextthatexistsonthatpage"
echo "$__match__"
That will print out exactly "sometextthatexistsonthatpage" as intended.
I've been trying to get it working in python, but without any luck:
from twill.commands import go, find, echo
go("http://somepage")
find("sometext")
and now I don't know how to print the results. The manual says about
find: When called from Python, the matching string is returned.
so I tried print find("sometext") but that prints out "none".
I tried echo("$__match__") but that prints out "$__match__".
How would I do it?
Thanks
mart
