So if you select the scrollable element it will scroll that element instead of the whole page: Select.ScrollableElement InfiniteScroll · Select.ListItem · 1000 · true To select the scrollable element, ju...

Re: Saving full HTML of URLs

You can use Gather.HTML to get the current page HTML (or the HTML of any particular element when the element is selected), and since version 3.2.4.8 you can use Sequence.WriteFile to write files with arbitrary text content.
