Need help with _IEPropertyGet

[Val78]

Hi,

I've been trying to get a mouse to move to a certain control on the web page using screenx and screeny properties of _IEPropertyGet function.

I've been able to get the script to work when the page domain is "localhost" but if I try the same script on our training or live domain the script simply doesn't work and I have no idea why. I get no error messages and it seems like AutoIt simply stops executing at the point when I try to extract coordinates of the control. Here is the code sample I'm talking about.

$oIE = _IECreate("http://training.mysite.com/App/Modules/GP/Order.aspx?company=X&id=Y")
$HWND = _IEPropertyGet($oIE, "hwnd")
WinSetState($HWND, "", @SW_MAXIMIZE)
_IEAction($oIE, "visible")

$button = _IEGetObjById($oIE, "UcxOrderEntry3xOrdersGridxxctl2xxctl0_Item_0")
$iScreenX =  _IEPropertyGet($button,"screenX")
$iScreenY =  _IEPropertyGet($button,"screenY")
$height = _IEPropertyGet($button,"height")
$width = _IEPropertyGet($button,"width")
MouseMove($iScreenX + $width/2, $iScreenY + $height/2)

If I set $oIE = _IECreate("http://localhost/App/Modules/GP/Order.aspx?company=X&id=Y"), code seems to work. I even did a Diff on source of the page between my local and other domain and I could not see any differences that would affect this script. Is there anything that I'm missing?

Thanks for your help.

Suggest you run from the SciTe console and use SciTe Debug Mode (see my sig) to insure you know what lines of code are executing.

Thanks Dale, I just ran it with debug in SciTe and it executed fine until I try to get x screen position of the button:

0042: 0-0: $iScreenX = _IEPropertyGet($button,"screenX")

C:\Program Files\AutoIt3\Include\IE.au3 (3036) : ==> The requested action with this object has failed.:

Return $iTemp + $o_object.document.parentwindow.screenLeft

I'm not sure why this script has issues pulling up coordinates on remote domains.

Please post all of the output to the SciTe console.
