> Recording Login Sequences Reliably

  Have you ever tried to record a login session only to find out
  your entries were not properly recorded or were not recorded at
  all? There are a number of different approaches available to be
  able to record the different types of login.

  Use these guidelines to record the login session reliably:

  (1) HTML Pages

      To record logins built with HTML based pages, the fields are
      usually recorded after the user has  clicked on the "Submit"
      button, tabbed  through the next field or, pressed the  enter
      key.

  (2) Java Applets

      To record logins built with Java Applets, use standard
      recording approach or, by enabling the  option "Text Field
      Entry" under Applet  recording, as well as enabling "Auto
      Record Inputs" from keyboard commands for eValid to record the
      input. There are  some cases which require the use of
      xyLClicks to set focus to the edit fields.

  (3) Java Apps.

      To record logins built with Java Applications, use the
      Application Mode Recording feature of  eValid.  User input is
      automatically  recorded as a KeyText command after each
      MouseClick, Enter, or Tab command.

  (3) Applications

      To record logins built with Applications, use the Application
      Mode Recording feature of  eValid. If the application is run
      from  outside the browser, use Desktop Mode  Recording which
      records inputs as a  KeyText command while all other keyboard
      movements are recorded as KeySys commands.

  (4) Modal Dialogs

      To record logins built with Modal Dialogs, use the available
      Modal Dialog commands from the  script dialog box or use the
      Desktop Mode  Recording feature of eValid.
