[Help]Stickam Script

[phinney]

Hey, I was wondering if it was possible to make a script to automatically login to stickam.

Basically I want to write a script that when opened will automatically go to this url:

http://www.stickam.com/loginForm.do

which is simply the login form for stickam, if you login with that form it will take you to your profile page

I kind of understand the _IEFORM codes but nothing im trying is working

can someone please take a look at that webpage and offer some insight as to what i have to do to get it to select the two textboxes for the username/password then click the Login button?

Show me your best effort so we can see what was wrong. Doing that should optimize the learning process of using _IEFormX functions.

#include <IE.au3>
$oIE = _IECreate ("http://www.stickam.com/loginForm.do")
_IELOADWAIT ($oIE)
$oUsername = _IEFormGetObjByName ($oIE, "j_username")
_IEFormElementSetValue ($oUsername, "E-mail Address goes here")
$oPassword = _IEFormGetObjByName ($oIE, "j_password")
_IEFormElementSetValue ($oPassword, "Password Goes Here")

That code there doesnt include the clicking on the login button. because I havent gotten to the point of needing to write it because I cant even get the username/password fields to fill up.

When you look at the source of the webpage, there isnt any actual Forms (<form...>) so I dont know if _IEForm commands will even work...

There is a frame inside the page. The frame contains the form to automate. This is the frame URL: http://www.stickam.com/loginFormOverlay.do

Here's how to automate it:

- Get reference to IE document object ($oIE in almost all cases)

- Get reference to the frame containing the form (using the $oIE as parent)

- Get reference to the form (using the frame as parent)

- Get reference to the form elements (using the form as parent)
