We love eValid but we're wondering, do you have some general way to approach converting a "from life" recording of an AJAX application into a script that uses the advanced "structural testing" commands?

The structural commands in eValid are a group of actions you can take to identify the location of a particular object in the page -- based on one of its properties -- and take an action on it or an object "near" it, without having to know anything specific about where that is one the page.

This is quite powerful because with these structual commands you can build powerful playback scripts that are immune to most page changes.

Here is a page that may help: Short Example Passages of DOM Manipulation Activity. It is a starting point for you, and there are many other pages and examples in the documentation.
