Webread function will not change inputs for html website?
Show older comments
I'm trying to do a search query on the NCBI website so I use the following URL:
I then want to change the sorting input to sort by the date modified. According to the source code, I need to change the following input to 'MDAT'
EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Protein.Sequence_ResultsPanel.Sequence_DisplayBar.Sort
However, when I attempt to do so with the following command, it will not change the input? I've been able to use the command to change other inputs that have numerical inputs but I can't seem to change an input with a string input?
>> str=webread(url,'EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Protein.Sequence_ResultsPanel.Sequence_DisplayBar.PrevSort','MDAT','EntrezSystem2.PEntrez.Protein.Sequence_ResultsPanel.Sequence_DisplayBar.PageSize',100);
Also, this is how the webpage looks viewed through mozilla's developer tool (attached).
