I'm using the web viewer to scrape data from a website on a daily basis. The script loops through my records and loads the web page. I use a loop script like the below to make sure the page has loaded before scraping data.

 

 

Loop

Pause/Resume Script [ Duration (seconds): 1 ]
Set Variable [ $html; Value:GetLayoutObjectAttribute("source";"content") ]
Exit Loop If [ PatternCount($html; "<head>") ]

End Loop

 

The problem is that occasionally the web viewer returns a "the request timed out" error in the status bar and this causes the script to just loop infinitely and not complete. If I come across this error and manually load the page again it continues with issues. Is there any way I can pull this error into the script somehow to avoid having to manually check it?
