Reading the firefox address bar, and displaying it in a messagebox.


 Share

Recommended Posts

I am writting a small script that will read the firefox address bar and save it to a text file to be read by a program that I am making. But right now, I want it to show me what it sees in the form of a message box.

The problem with code below is that the message box displays "0". I take it that the read operation failed.

Here is the code. I cannot think of any other way to do this, so any help would be appriciated.

AutoItSetOption ("WinTitleMatchMode", 2 )
$address = WinGetText("Mozilla Firefox", "http://")
MsgBox( 0, "asdf", $address )

"You have forced me to raise the indifference warning to beige, it's a beige alert people. As with all beige alerts please prepare to think about the possibility of caring."

Thanks! It works perfectly.

Though the project that I am working on is private, and will most likely never be public, if I use this code in other projects I will give you proper credit.

If I forget to, please remind me lol
