Javascript popup autoclick ok

[barkeeper]

hi there,

I have a question to you guys, not sure if it's even possible, but want to ask anyway.

Is there an option in AutoIt to check for a javascript dialog popup and when it appears auto-click the OK button? We use a piece of online software at work that checks if you're still using it every 30 minutes, you click OK to make the dialog disapear and still be logged in, if you don't click within 10 minutes you get logged out.

I'd like the script to auto check for a webpage javascript dialog, and click OK when it appears. I'll include a screenshot to make things easier for you.

Thank you for looking into this and helping me, I appreciate it a lot!

well you could check for it via a pixelchecksum() every nine minutes, and if its there then click it.

read

PixelChecksum()

Sleep()

MouseClick()

in the helpfile.

Unfortunately thats the only way I know.

Thanks! Could you give me a snippet of how that code would look like maybe ?

Something like this, you will need to read the helpfile with regards the functions.

And you will need to use au3windowinfotoll to get some info.

$pChecksum = ;whatever the checksum of the popup is

While 1
Sleep(540000)
$pCheck = PixelChecksum() ;coordinates in here
If $pCheck = $pChecksum Then
MouseClick() ;coordinates in here
EndIf
WEnd

I would use WinGetPos since it looks like that popup is a set size. You can look for a window of that size in a loop then controlclick the ok.

$window=WinGetPos("Message from webpage")
While 1
    $window=WinGetPos("Message from webpage")
If $window[2]="enter the window width here" And $window[3]="enter the height here" Then
    ControlClick("Message from webpage","","control ID of the OK button here","Left",1);use the windowinfo tool from autoit
EndIf
Sleep(10)
WEnd

this little 2 line snipit will give you the width and height, but only run it when the window you want the size of is open

$window=WinGetPos("Message from webpage")
MsgBox(0,"Size of window","Size: Width: "&$window[2]&" Height: "&$window[3])

Yes that would probably be better.

I was under the impression javascript did not show up as a window, rather an object on the webpage.

You guys Rock, I'm going to try that right away, will let you know the outcome.

I just tested it on our clock in page which uses a popup with the same window name and it worked fine. Not to say it will for this as I can't test it on that window. this is the exact code that worked for me (the window I'm sure is going to be a different size though)

$window=WinGetPos("Message from webpage")
While 1
    $window=WinGetPos("Message from webpage")
    If IsArray($window) Then
If $window[2]=185 And $window[3]=126 Then
    ControlClick("Message from webpage","","[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:1]","Left",1);use the windowinfo tool from autoit
EndIf
EndIf
Sleep(10)
WEnd

My test is going to take a little time since I need to let the application get idle, if I get a support call in the meantime the timeout counter is reset

As soon as I know more, I'll post it here.

It worked Thank you guys sooo much, the working code for me was :

$window=WinGetPos("Message from webpage")
While 1
    $window=WinGetPos("Message from webpage")
    If IsArray($window) Then
If $window[2]=377 And $window[3]=204 Then
    ControlClick("Message from webpage","","[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:1]","Left",1);use the windowinfo tool from autoit
EndIf
EndIf
Sleep(10)
WEnd

1 more question : Will this LOOP and wait for the next time the popup appears ?

another option that might work instead of pixelchecksum and wingetpos would be using winexists

yes, While 1 is a neverending loop

[barkeeper]

Got it, such a newbie

Thank you guys for the help! you're lifesavers

[barkeeper]

1 thing i've noticed, not sure if you guys know any solution for that.

But it turns out that with Vista Aero turned on the popup appears to have a different size (the border gets slighly thicker).

Any ideas ?

Is this window "message from webpage" the only one with that name ?

If so you dont need to check its size.

[Bert]

What happens when you use the AutoIt window info tool on it? Does the tool give you any info?

Yeah, he said Javascript popup so I wasn't sure if using the window title would work.

[barkeeper]

It appears to have different sizes when you have "AERO" activated, it's like a little extra border is around the screens, adapting the size in the source did the trick.
