Thanks, I really appreciate that. You bit of code worked and I tested my code on a different site, and it also worked. The site i am loading loads a new popup that I use. This page is brought to the front. And there are no settings in internet explorer that allow me to keep it hidden. Such as opening in current window, bring to front, switch to new tab, open it in a tab, etc. No luck. Does anyone have any ideas? Is there an IE.au3 function to hide tabs? Thanks

Thanks for the response. I tried changing it to a 1, however it is still not hidden I'm afraid. I am using internet explorer 7 for this. if you have a bit of script that would do this, I would love to see it. Thank you

So i have been using IE.au3 to write some code. I finished the project, which in short checks the status of a website. Now, however, it would be great if the whole process could be hidden from site so I dont get a flash of windows while it runs for 2 seconds. $o_IE = _IECreate("http://site.com", 0, 0, 1, 0) ;WinSetState("This site","",@SW_HIDE) _IELoadWait($o_IE) $o_tab = _IEAttach("http://page-that-opened-in-a-new-tab-that-i-want-to-get-control-of.com", "url") Using IEcreate with the open as hidden value set doesn't work. I have commented out the @SW hide because that only hides the page after it loads the first time. I would prefer to not have to see the webpage appear and then disappear. Can anyone help!?

I'm trying to add all the txt documents in a folder and all its subfolders into a list. I have the list and folder select dialog working properly. I can even check the folder for all .txt documents with the FileFindFirstFile() and then FileFindNextFile(). Is it possible to check a folder AND its SUBFOLDERS for .txt documents. I then need to get the location of the txt document returned. Tricky. IE: the user selects the folder C:\Documents The program finds C:\Documents\stuff.txt AND C:\Documents\other\stuff2.txt Any ideas? I have tried various things with autoit without luck, I have also tried fiddling with the command prompt DIR and trying to get it to list files below the current folder, no luck. Is this even possible?

certainly, sry about not including a link before. Heres a sample site: http://mio.discoremoto.virgilio.it/frrr/Hero%20CHINA/H01.JPG Attempting to click the 'scarica' button, which is really just a text link. Not an image. I still can't figure it out!

I have tried impossibly to glean info off virgilio.it with this udf, but it seems to not be able to! Try hard as a i may to get the Ie.au3 (and some code obviously) to click the link on this page. http://mio.discoremoto.virgilio.it/frrr/Hero%20CHINA/H01.JPG When I tried the utility (post 37) it gave nearly 0 info when you can clearly see there are several links and imgs. Quite curious... Is it some bug on the site? Or is it due to the 'foreign language'? Or mayhaps a bug in the UDF/site combination... Any ideas? just..need...to click the scarica..... Urgh...

I am trying to do a control click on a link in a browser, and I'm using dale's IE.au3. BUT, it seems to not be able to grab this link nor click it. I have tried tweaking my code as well as IE.au3, but no to avail! This is what im trying to click on: I don't think it'll pick up as a text link, i tried _IEClickLinkByText($o_IE, "scarica") Didnt work... and I was messing with get by class name, but no luck!! How can i do this??? PLease help TEH NOOB!

Hehe, I got that far... All it shows is that the button is within the classname: Internet Explorer_Server1 I still can't figure out how to target the button! and whats the Controlid for Internet Explorer?

How would I get the Window info for the button? The text on it is "Click Here to Continue" thanks

Erp. Figured it out! StatusBarGet under the control commands! Sorry about this! Now the question is, how do you Control send to hit the submit button? IE/Html UDF? Some function? Help? Thanks

awesome thanks, the ftp old worked like a charm!

Is it possible to run the command prompt hidden and still have Autoit input values as required? I need to open command prompt Than type ftp the the address the user the pass then upload and quit So, my question is can all this be done in the background (hidden) without affecting other open apps? Thanks -Nanascalala [And for future reference, if anyone wants to do ftp uploads from autoit using command prompt, I would suggest checking this out: http://www.udel.edu/topics/internet/ftp/ftpdos.html ]

Yeah, just got that part working thanks, SupraNatural! Got the missing bit. But now, is there anyway to do FTP uploads? I don't think there is a function, and I tried saving it in notepad as: ftp://myuser:mypass@myhost.com:21/mydir/tempcap.txt But it said invalid. Any other way to do an upload? I might just have to open SmartFTP and do the upload. Any ideas?

2 Questions! I need to find a specific line in a text file. What function can I use to do this? I don't want to have it open notepad and do a Ctrl+F. I need it all to run in the background so as to not affect other programs. I'm searching the file for something similiar to this: '<td><tr><img src="http://' Also, how do you do FTP uploads with AutoIt? I see the new FTP proxy setup, but how do you upload files? It it just for INetGet? Would some sort of Com function work for this? This program downloads a site to a txt file, I need to find the new image link in the text, then upload just the new link in a file to a ftp. Any and ALL suggestions are welcome! I appreciate all posts! Thanks -Nanascalala

I was having the exact same problem as Vend3r. I updated and everything. BUT I thought i did the beta update when I didnt... Stoopid me. Anyway, if you're still having the problem, might wanna just try the MOST recent and reinstall Beta files: http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/files/beta/autoit/ Doubt that helped, but perhaps!
