but why my button get hung when i close the IE page while loading is not yet done.

how can i handle this error? need help..thanks in advance..

Of course you are not using _IE_Example() in real time, which loads too fast for this to be an issue.

Probably your actual script is hung in _IELoadWait() which is called internally by things like _IECreate() unless you set $f_wait = 0. The default timeout is like five minutes, which is not really hung but seems like it.

thanks for the reply. but what if i embedded the page in the gui..just like what we have in the help file..is there a way to forcibly close the gui without the page being loaded completely? i tried to stop it first by using IEAction 'stop' and use the _IEQuit but it doesnt seem to work..

Well you have a few ways, you can either write/copy _IELoadWait and make it check if the close button has been hit which I don't really recommend, or find a way to use GUIRegisterMsg to grab the event went the close button is pressed. I know it is possible but as I didn't write the code to do this I'm not at liberty to post it.

I also am questioning why you exitloop, then do a guidelete then exit. I fail to see why you don't just exit.

Edit:

http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=55759

Zedna showed the exact way here of how to check if exit was pressed.

He has SC_CLOSE just returning, but just pop an exit there and it should all work regardless of a website navigating.
