chachew Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 Im new to AutoIT and also new to programming in general so sorry for any dumb questions Sorry if this question has been used before but what i am wanting to do is have the mouse click on a txtbox inside of a webpage by the pages name instead of the MouseClick coordinates. Seems like the coordinates work perfectly as long as my browser and PC settings are the same on multiple PC's. I want to build a script that can perform the same task on different OS's and different IE versions and settings. If the IE window sizing is different then the MouseClick() doesnt seem to work correctly. If i view the source of the website that i am trying to pull the data from then i can get the txtbox names so how can i call those names for mouse clicks. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks

PsaltyDS Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 Look at the _IE* functions in the help file, and once you learn how to get a reference to the web page element of interest, look at _IEAction() with "click".
