Grooveshark Playlist Backup

[kishy]

The following website will let Grooveshark users to backup their playlists: www.gsuser.com/exportplaylist

Issue is using Autoit will always result in Invalid Login. I checked my login details and they are correct, but after umpteen tries I always get an invalid login message. Tried to use a really long sleep but still did not work.

I am running the script on a windows 7 machine. Here is my code:

#include <IE.au3>

$oIE = _IECreate ("www.gsuser.com/exportplaylist")

$oForm = _IEFormGetCollection($oIE, 0)

$o_login = _IEGetObjById ($oForm, 'gsuser')

$o_password = _IEGetObjById ($oForm, 'gspass')

$o_signin = _IEGetObjById ($oForm, 'Login')

$username = "username"

$password = "password"

_IEFormElementSetValue ($o_login, $username)

_IEFormElementSetValue ($o_password, $password)

Sleep(10000)

_IEFormSubmit($oForm)

If you examine the input elements with a DOM inspector, I'll bet you see some on event actions attached that are not triggered by your _IEFormElementSetValue()s. You might try _IEAction() to set focus on the input, then ControlSend() to input the value, which should trigger the required on event scripts.

I am a newbie with autoit, it would be helpful if you post some code regarding your suggestion.

The DOM is not an AutoIt concept. The document object model (DOM) is how the web page HTML elements are handled as a programming interface by the browser.

For an example of this particular work around, see Example 5 under _IEFormElementSetValue() in the help file.
