Set Named Tag

This action marks the found tag as a named tag, so that it can be used as a reference when finding tags in subsequent steps.

This is useful if several steps should work relative to this tag.

Properties

The Set Named Tag action can be configured using the following properties:

Tag Name

Has two options, Auto or Named.Auto gives the tag a name which is number. The first Auto-numbered tag will have number 1, the next number 2 etc. Note that the number may change if additional Auto-numbered tags are inserted before this step (on the same page).Named gives the tag a fixed and explicitly stated name, which has several advantages:

  • It is easier to remember what the named tag identifies if it has a well-chosen name
  • An explicitly named tag is not affected if another named tag is inserted before it
  • If you use the same name again in Set Named Tag, the name will simply be made to refer to the new tag (useful for stateful in-page looping)
Keep Existing Named Tags

If checked, the existing named tags will be kept, otherwise these will be unmarked as named tags and only the found tag will be a named tag after this step.
