which variable obtain the output ?! I tried

MsgBox(64, "Result", "VanBlattidCat = " & $bolRET)

But it didn't display output ..

Sorry I'm new to this ..

That $bolRET is LOCAL inside the function, so you don't see it outside the function. In my demo, the return value of the function is still stored in and displayed from $RET.

[Gaviel]

so you mean it should look like this ?!

$RET = _TestDiv("VanBlattidCat")
MsgBox(64, "Result", "VanBlattidCat = " & $RET)
Func _TestDiv($sSearch)
    Local $bolRET = False, $iErr = 1
    $colDiv = _IETagNameGetCollection($oIE, "DIV")
    For $oDiv In $colDiv
        If StringInStr(_IEPropertyGet($oDiv, "innerText"), $sSearch) Then
            $iErr = 0
            $oSib = $oDiv.nextSibling
            If IsObj($oSib) And $oSib.className & "" = "ldetails" Then
                $bolRET = True
                ExitLoop
            EndIf
        EndIf
    Next
    Return SetError($iErr, 0, $bolRET)
EndFunc   ;==>_TestDiv

EDIT : Tried that but instead of an ERROR .. The script return a FALSE ..

The script should return ERROR cause 'VanBlattidCat' doesn't exist in the HTML code ..

what could be the problem !?

When the initial search string is not found the @error macro is set, not an "ERROR" string. You would test it this way:

$sSearch = "VanBlattidCat"
$RET = _TestDiv($sSearch)
MsgBox(64, "Result", "Searched for: " & $sSearch & @CRLF & _
        "$RET = " & $RET & @CRLF & _
        "@error = " & @error)

Func _TestDiv($sSearch)
    Local $bolRET = False, $iErr = 1
    $colDiv = _IETagNameGetCollection($oIE, "DIV")
    For $oDiv In $colDiv
        If StringInStr(_IEPropertyGet($oDiv, "innerText"), $sSearch) Then
            $iErr = 0
            $oSib = $oDiv.nextSibling
            If IsObj($oSib) And $oSib.className & "" = "ldetails" Then
                $bolRET = True
                ExitLoop
            EndIf
        EndIf
    Next
    Return SetError($iErr, 0, $bolRET)
EndFunc   ;==>_TestDiv

You might also use the "If Not @error" example previously given. The contents of $RET (True/False) tell you if the total conditions were met, while the status of @error (0/1) tells you if failed to find the search string at all.

You really need to get a grip on this, as most AutoIt functions use the @error macro to report various conditions, so you WILL see this again.
