_IELinkClickByText

[Amon]

Hello,

I have some problems to "Click" on Text Links wich contains no href attribute, but only a 'onclick' event:

<tr><td><a onclick="jump('character');" style="cursor:pointer;">Character</a>   </td>

Why can't I get acces to this Link by:

_IELinkClickByText ($oIE_game, "Character",0,0)
_IELoadWait ($oIE_game, 20, 3000)

ist there any workaround?

I tried it with _IELinkGetCollection but there are also these links missing....

with _IETagNameGetCollection ($oIE_game, "a") I am able to get all "a" tags, but then is the question - how do i get access to the specific onclick-attribute (?) - and how can i simulate a klick on it?

thanks in advance

best regards

_IELinkClickByText and _IELinkGetCollection use the document.links collection. This collection is defined as "A collection of all a and area elements that have assigned href attributes that make them behave as links (instead of only anchors)". So what you describe makes sense.

Your approach to this will need to use the _IETagNameGetCollection function just as you have and will need to look something like this:

$oLinks = _IETagNameGetCollection ($oIE_game, "a")
For $oLink in $oLinks
    If $oLink.innerText = "Character" Then
        _IEAction($oLink, "click")
        ExitLoop
    EndIf
Next

Thank you for your hint, it just needed a tiny completion:

If string($oLink.innerHTML) = "Character" Then

I must be converted to a string, otherwise it returns 0 / NULL

Ah yes, i do that in the UDF but easily forget about it. If the property is NULL, it returns numeric 0... a numeric comparison of 0 to any string returns True. Good catch.
