im trying to come up with a script to read a certain area of a webpage say a certain space around x,y cords would be nice like about 300x300 in a certain area using it to see if it matches a certain text like lumber or something like that in that area

If the text you want to get always starts and ends with the same sub-strings, then you could get all the text and then filter it with the _StringBetween method.

If not, try with MouseClickDrag(x1,y1,x2,y2) and then Send("^c")

Look at the _IE* functions of the IE.au3 UDF. For specific elements on the page you can get their X/Y coordinates and text.

there is to many div id;s. most are the same. the only thing that changes on them is the name or something like that. im using it for page error checking i need it to read the webpages ouput what u see in a certain area. once i got a script to read a area of the page i can input what i need it to do, and use the if to look for several diff things. i just dont know how to make it look in that area. and yes i am a newbie! i got down mouse move click, input box's and speaking of inputbox is there any way to have a input box w/ 2 input areas like say please input x cords ____ y cords____? actaul scripts would be nice! i learn pretty quick but something new w/out a exmaple is hard to understand.

Man, use some sentences, punctuation and capital letters. Why do you want to make what you write so hard to read when you are asking for help?

Then, read the address of a page with _IeBodyReadText or _IeBodyReadHtml (the best one that matches your needs) storing the result in a variable. After, look into it with _StringBetween.

I'm a compulsive poster. When I post something, come to read it at least 5 minutes later after the posting, because I will edit it. I edited even this signature a few minutes later after I wrote it.
