Blit is a tool that lets you take screenshots of websites on a schedule. Try it free.

With the automation steps, we support rich interactions with a web page. Many users want to capture all the elements of a carousel. This post will show you how to do so.

We’ll use a simple carousel found on this page. It has 3 images that can be shown by clicking on the dot at the bottom.

Sample carousel

Find the element to interact with

To interact with the dots, we need to find the CSS selector. Press F12 to open the Developer Tools. In the Developer Tools, click on the mouse cursor at the top left corner (highlighted in red below).

Customers sometimes ask us how to include a timestamp in the capture or the URL of the web page captured. You can achieve this by injecting Javascript into the target page to add the timestamp and URL directly on the page.

In your capture, under Advanced Web Page Options, click on Edit Javascript. You can add the code below:

(function() {
  var d = new Date();

  var date = d.toLocaleString("en-US", {
    timeZone: "America/New_York" 
  });

  var div = document.createElement("div");
  var style = document.createAttribute("style");
  style.value = "position: fixed; width: auto; height: 40px;  top: 0; left: 0; right: 0; bottom: 0; background-color: White; z-index: 9999999999; color: Black; font-size: 12px;";
  div.setAttributeNode(style);  

  div.innerHTML = date + "<br>" + document.location.href;

  document.body.append(div);
})();

This adds a a DIV, 40px high (height: 40px), with a white background (background-color: White) and black font (color: Black; font-size: 12px;). To ensure the DIV is at the forefront of the page, we add a high z-index (z-index: 9999999999). This DIV is placed at the top left corner of the page (top: 0; left: 0;).
