Drop down box handling in Web application

[delfin]

Hi Friends,

I am planning to automate a web application and the challenges that I found are as follows. Please help with your expertise

I am eager to know how to perform below scenarios without using mouse click option.

1. How to select a value from a drop down of a web application?

2. How check a radio button?

3. How to manipulate an editable PDF form?

For the first two, see the _IEFormElement*Select funtions.

For the third, you need to have Adobe standard edition to get the OLE object model (otherwise it is back to Mouse Clicks). This is something I'm working on now and just getting started... If anyone has any experience here, please let me know...

p.s. there is also an open source project called iText that allows Adobe form manipulation, but I'm not certain it is accessible from AuotIt

Thanks Dale.

Here I face another problem. In the first page itself I have a dropdown with 30 values and it comes under a form with 'no name' (form name is blank) in it.

This page comes after a login page and I tried the below code to select a value but nothing happens in application.

$oForm1= _IEFormGetObjByName($oIE, "")

$oSelect = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($oForm1, "Lender_ID")

_IEFormElementOptionselect ($oSelect, "1000", 1, "byValue")

Please read the Remarks in the helpfile for any of the _IE*ByName* functions.

Thanks Dale, I solved using 'By index'.

I couldnt make it through 'By name'
