What is the preffered way to click on a "link" in a dynamically created table??

I can click on items in forms, but I can not find out how to get a reference to an item in a table.

I know that on the page, it is table#4 (the fith table) row 0 , column 1

This code DOES NOT WORK:

;==================================

;======= get refernece to 5th table

$colTables = _IETableGetCollection($oIE,4)

$oElements = _IEFormElementGetCollection ($colTables)

;== @error = 4, Invalid Object Type, that is why it does not work

_IEFormElementClickValue( $oElements , "CustomerName" )

;===== end of program

;===== user defined function THAT DOES WORK when called with element and value from FORM

Func _IEFormElementClickValue( $oElements , $cName )

For $oElement IN $oElements

IF $oElement.value = $cName Then

_IEAction($oElement, "CLICK")

ENDIF

NEXT

Return

EndFunc

:====================================== end of code

First try changing

IF $oElement.value = $cName Then

to

IF String($oElement.value) = $cName Then

then post the HTML if still having trouble.

Doesn't work needs to be ripped out of the troubleshooting lexicon. It means that what you tried did not produce the results you expected. It begs the questions 1) what did you try?, 2) what did you expect? and 3) what happened instead?

thanks for the suggestion, that did not "solve" the problem, though it did not hurt either. I have edited my original posting. I have found that IEFormElementGetCollection does not want what is returned by _IETableGetCollection. That makes since. One says "form", the other says "table" in the name.

per your suggestion, here is the html code

This work around has solved my problems. I looked at all the links on the page. Found the "common part" of the link that was in what I wanted to click, then made a FOR NEXT to find the link with that "common part". I consider this problem solved.

$oLinks = _IELinkGetCollection ($oIE)
For $oLink In $oLinks
    If StringInStr($oLink.href , "membersearch.jsp?" ) Then
        _IEAction($oLink, "click")
    EndIf
Next
_IELoadWait( $oIE )
