BreCalmor 0 Posted December 5, 2010 (edited) I am trying to select a table by class name, so I am using _IETagnameGetCollection and parsing through the tables returned to get the classname ($oTable.className). I can get a list of the tables no problem, but when I try to run an if statement to select that table name, it doesn't work right. If $oTable.className = "TheList" Then I also tried: If $sText = "TheList" Then Either way, when I use a msgbox or consolewrite, the value of the classname or the $sText variable is 0, yet it runs the If part and not the Else part. What the heck... $oTables = _IETagnameGetCollection($oIE, "table") $index = 0 For $oTable in $oTables $sText = $oTable.className If $sText = "TheList" Then ;ConsoleWrite("[" & $sText & "]" & @CR) MsgBox(4096, "Stop", "[" & $sText & "]" & @CR) ConsoleWrite($index & ":- [" & $oTable.className & "]" & @CR) ;$oTable = _IETagnameGetCollection($oIE, "table", $index) $aTableData = _IETableWriteToArray ($oTable, True) _ArrayDisplay($aTableData) ExitLoop Else ConsoleWrite($index & ": [" & $oTable.className & "]" & @CR) $index += 1 EndIf Next ConsoleWrite($index & ":END [" & $oTable.className & "]" & @CR) Thoughts? What am I doing wrong??? Thanks !! Edited December 5, 2010 by BreCalmor Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zedna 279 Posted December 5, 2010 (edited) If String($oTable.className) = "TheList" ThenGood to know about that, thanks Dale!I use your IE UDF too and I use some not implemented (here _IETagNameGetCollectionByClassName) properties/functions too so this trick can be handy for me too.

DaleHohm 65 Posted December 5, 2010 For those who are not familiar with the issue, when $oTable.className finds no match, it returns an integer 0, the expression is then deemed by autoit to be a numeric comparison... any string on the right side evaluates as an integer 0 and 0 = 0 is true. Using the String function on the left forces a string comparison.Dale Free Internet Tools: DebugBar, AutoIt IE Builder, HTTP UDF, MODIV2, IE Developer Toolbar, IEDocMon, Fiddler, HTML Validator, WGet, curlMSDN docs: InternetExplorer Object, Document Object, Overviews and Tutorials, DHTML Objects, DHTML Events, WinHttpRequest, XmlHttpRequest, Cross-Frame Scripting, Office object modelAutomate input type=file (Related)Alternative to _IECreateEmbedded? better: _IECreatePseudoEmbedded Better Better?IE.au3 issues with Vista - WorkaroundsSciTe Debug mode - it's magic: #AutoIt3Wrapper_run_debug_mode=Y Doesn't work needs to be ripped out of the troubleshooting lexicon.
