Thanks for asking DavidG.

You can't, except by modifying the web page in question.

But eValid doesn't care about this, so even if the next page is from a completely different domain your recorded script will work just fine.

(Side Note: For some of you who are experts on this, yes, this behavior has the potential to violate the "Same Origin Policy" (SOP) which applies to all web browsers.

See this Wikipedia page fora good explanation of the SOP: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Same-origin_policy

This is not a problem because the eValid a free-standing executable which has the same "standing" in terms of security issues as any browser does.)
