How do I get the name of a textbox in IE?

[tokai6 0]

I've been using Autoit for sometime now... and now I am faced with this problem...

How do I get the name of textbox in the Internet Explorer... I tried looking at the source of the page... the name is static(it changes everytime I load the page) and an ID seems to be missing or theres no ID at all

<input name="user_89f7bf6f731c3a9cbc4418b63689f949" type="text" size="17" class="field_login">

thats the source... the alphanumeric after the "user_" is the one that changes...

I've found debugbar - http://www.debugbar.com/ - good for this type of thing.

Could you use a wildcard or RegEx to find the other bits that remain static?

<input name="user_*" type="text" size="17" class="field_login">

Is this a public website?

I tried it...

$oIE = _IECreate("*******.com")

$o_form = _IEFormGetObjByName($oIE, 0)

$o_TBox = _IEFormGetObjByName($o_form,"user_*")

_IEFormElementSetValue($o_TBox,"USERNAME")

it results to...

--> IE.au3 V2.4-0 Warning from function _IEFormGetObjByName, $_IEStatus_NoMatch

--> IE.au3 V2.4-0 Error from function _IEFormElementSetValue, $_IEStatus_InvalidDataType

Yes its a public website... I just want to do a automatic login for it...

How about _IETagNameGetCollection and then identify the right one in your script?

What is the url?

$oInputs = _IETagnameGetCollection($oIE, "input")
For $oInput in $oInputs
    If String($oInput.className) = "field_login" Then
        $sName = $oInput.name
        ConsoleWrite($sName & @CRLF)
    EndIf
Next
