--- if not (x) :
I do not understand what that should test, since I cannot see what x is

I am trying to store the value, that I am copying from another file in the variable x.

x contains hello###
i don't think it will work

x = type("c", KeyModifier.CTRL)

after opening any search engine :

x = type("v", KeyModifier.CTRL)
type(Key.ENTER)
wait(20)

if not (x) :
        popup("# is not there")

x is storing the value hello###, this value is dynamic, since I am copying from a different file, where there are various data.
now in the search result screen I want to search whether the entire string "hello###" is present or not.

Ok, understood - no will not work ;-)

type("c", KeyModifier.CTRL)
x = Env.getClipboard()
print "from Clipboard:", x # now x should contain, what you have "read" from the file

# after opening any search engine :
# --- how do you do that?
type("v", KeyModifier.CTRL)
type(Key.ENTER)
# now the value should be pasted into the entry field

If you now want to test, wether the value has really been pasted, you have to again get it back to the clipboard
type("a", KeyModifier.CTRL) # select all
type("c", KeyModifier.CTRL)
xPasted = Env.getClipboard()
# now you can compare
if x == xPasted: print "Oh yes it pasted well"
else: print "Something went wrong"

If I understand right, then you finally have a webpage, that contains search results and now you want to know, wether the entries contain the text you have given before ???

If this is true, either send me a screenshot of the situation (mail see https://launchpad.net/~raimund-hocke) or post it somewhere and add the link here.
and note the text, you are looking for.
