Hello all,

I am trying to automate clicking "Delete all spam messages now" link in Gmail in Safari.

What would be the best way to do this? JavaScript for automation?

Thanks,

Jim

Ok. I think I figured this out (but any corrections or suggestions are welcome:

Execute JavaScript in Safari:

document.getElementsByClassName('x2').click();

I don't think that will work since .getElementsByClassName() function will return a collection of elements. You will need to specifiy which element to click, maybe something like this if you want the first element:

document.getElementsByClassName('x2')[0].click();

but I can't be for sure without having the actual HTML of the page.

It was working sporadically. But with your addition, it is working great now. My guess is that it is indeed the first element.

Thanks @JMichaelTX!
