Facebook Auto logon?

[storme]

G'day all

I just started writing a script for this and thought I'd check before reinventing the wheel.

I know a basic logon script is easy but there are a few situations that the script may encounter with facebook that

I'd like to handle.

1. Straight log on (Main Screen with user id/password at the top)

2. Straight log on (Main Screen with user id/password in middle)

3. Already logged on (May have ticked "Keep me logged in")

4. Session expired (?? I think that is what it is) (this is the one that just asks for the password.)

I think that is all, unless someone else has seen another variant.

ANYWAY.... Just wondering if anyone has one of these already??

Thanks for any help you can give.

none of the following are particularly good. All use send.

http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=69241 (doesn't help much )

and finally...

The last is probably what you want.

Thanks Mat!

The first few I had found and rejected as I didn't want to use SEND. WAY to prone to error.

The last is an interesting thread the first post is exactly where I was headed. I was hoping that someone had gone a little further and made a script that would handle all the "alternative" conditions. But it looks like I'll have to travel that road myself.

Are well might be fun...

Thanks again for the help!

I have not checked But you might get lucky and find that they will re-use the id's and names for the input controls for neatness. With IE.au3, positioning doesn't make a difference.

I thought you wouldn't like the send versions! I only put them in there for interesting reading on what other people have done.

Yeah they usually do.

Yep understood that about the send. It's a VERY usefull option when there are no more elegent ways.

Anyway I should stop talking hyper theticals and get some code written and tested to see if what I "think" may happen does.
