IE : input a date in pop calendar

[ionmang20]

How can I input a date in the Departure date field at www.lot.com ?

Using the below method I succeeded with the other fields, but not with the Departure date.

I also tried _IEImgClick, but without success.

#include <IE.au3>

Func Click_Id($_IE, $_Id, $_Text = "")
    Local $_Obj = _IEGetObjById($_IE, $_Id)
    _IEAction($_Obj, "click")
    If $_Text = "" Then Return
    Sleep(1500)
    Send($_Text)
    Sleep(1000)
    Send("{ENTER}")
EndFunc   ;==>Click_Id

$IE = _IECreate("http://www.lot.com", 0, 1, 1, 1)

Click_Id($IE, "ext-gen7", "Budapest [BUD]")
Click_Id($IE, "ext-gen19", "Sofia [SOF]")
Click_Id($IE, "selectedStartDate", "30-09-2010")

Suggest you use DebugBar to figure out how that calendar is structured... it is encapsulated in a DIV element with an ID of ui-datepicker-div, in turn there is a table with the days of the month... with TRs and TDs.

$oDiv = _IEGetObjById($oIE, "ui-datepicker-div")

$oTable = _IETagnameGetCollection($oDiv, "table", 0)

To click on the 5th row, 3rd cell you would

$oTR = _IETagnameGetCollection($oTable, "tr", 4)

$oTD = _IETagnameGetCollection($oTR, "td", 2)

_IEAction($oTD, "click")

Try this

#include <IE.au3>

$oIE = _IECreate("http://www.lot.com", 0, 1, 1, 1)
$oForm = _IEFormGetObjByName ($oIE, "miniBookerForm")
$oText = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($oForm, "selectedStartDate")
_IEFormElementSetValue ($oText, "30-09-2010")

@DaleHohm : Thanks, but your solution is a little bit complicated for me, and I can't make it work.

@wakillon : Thanks, your solution is simple and I understand it.

I have run into another problem, how can I click the Search button ?

It does't have a name or ID:

<A class=button-red onclick="bookFlightRequest(); return false;" href="javascript:void(0);">SEARCH</A>

I tried with _IEFormSubmit($Obj) and _IEImgClick($Obj, "SEARCH", "name"), but witout succes.

Can I run bookFlightRequest() java function ?

#include <IE.au3>

Flight()

Func SetObjValue($_Form, $_Id, $_Text)
    Local $_Obj = _IEGetObjById($_Form, $_Id)
    _IEFormElementSetValue($_Obj, $_Text)
EndFunc   ;==>SetObjValue

Func Flight()

    Local $IE = _IECreate("http://www.lot.com", 0, 1, 1, 1)
    Local $Obj = _IEFormGetObjByName($IE, "miniBookerForm")
    SetObjValue($Obj, "originId", "Budapest [BUD]")
    SetObjValue($Obj, "destinationId", "Sofia [SOF]")
    SetObjValue($Obj, "selectedStartDate", "02-10-2010")
    SetObjValue($Obj, "selectedAdultNumber", "2")
    SetObjValue($Obj, "selectedChildNumber", "2")
    
EndFunc   ;==>Flight

Try _IELinkClickByText ( $IE, "Recherche" )

but you must set arrival date before !

Thanks a lot, it works just fine.

#include <IE.au3>

Flight()

Func SetObjValue($_Form, $_Id, $_Text)
    Local $_Obj = _IEGetObjById($_Form, $_Id)
    _IEFormElementSetValue($_Obj, $_Text)
EndFunc   ;==>SetObjValue

Func Flight()

    Local $IE = _IECreate("http://www.lot.com", 0, 1, 1, 1)
    Local $Obj = _IEGetObjById($IE, "flightOnewayLabel")
    _IEAction($Obj, "click")
    Local $Obj = _IEFormGetObjByName($IE, "miniBookerForm")
    SetObjValue($Obj, "originId", "Budapest [BUD]")
    SetObjValue($Obj, "destinationId", "Sofia [SOF]")
    SetObjValue($Obj, "selectedStartDate", "02-10-2010")
    SetObjValue($Obj, "selectedAdultNumber", "2")
    SetObjValue($Obj, "selectedChildNumber", "2")
    _IELinkClickByText ( $IE, "SEARCH" )

EndFunc   ;==>Flight

Thanks a lot, it works just fine.

Glad to help you !

but i don't see arrival date in your script...

[ionmang20]

Yes, that's because I'm looking for an oneway ticket

_IEGetObjById($IE, "flightOnewayLabel")

[ionmang20]

I'm struggling for a few hours to get the thicket price values form the following week table in the IE page:

But I don’t seem to get it right.

Can you point me in the right direction or tell me where I made mistakes?

If an object, form or element has a name or ID, I think, I can manage it, but if not, it seems I’m not up to the challenge.

Also if you know of a better explained topic regarding IE functions, I’ll be glad if you’ll share it with me, because I don’t seem to understand the AutoIt help file.
