manonstreet Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 It would be cool if variables could use other variables in their url. Meaning, if I create var1 which has a URL and regex, then I should be able to use {var1} inside of var2's URL. Variables would have to be evaluated sequentially to make this feasible, but I think it adds a lot of powerful potential. Thanks for the great software, --manonstreet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
floele Posted January 4, 2009 Report Share Posted January 4, 2009 I'd say that's already possible in the latest version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manonstreet Posted January 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 I'd say that's already possible in the latest version. Hmm, really? I created a simple test where I created a variable called link and extracted the link from the contents of a page. I then created a new variable called link2 and set the URL to {link}. Ketatrin just errors stating "The specified URL is not valid". I've also tried the same type of test just using a portion of the URL and and I get not found errors. It appears that the variables are not evaluating to their values, and the {link} is being used literally. In what version is this working?

floele Posted January 5, 2009 Report Share Posted January 5, 2009 Currently, I'd say that you have to save the variables before you can use them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manonstreet Posted January 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 You are correct sir, that did work Then how about a feature request for the previous variable to be saved when then + sign is clicked. And possibly a way to reorder variables or insert before / insert after. There has been a couple of times when I realize I want to add one more variable in the chain at the top. To do that currently, I have to delete all the variables and add them back. As a side note, does Ketarin support using variables in the regex'es too?

floele Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 Yep, I'll fix that for the next version. Nope, it does not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
