Well, I would write your code like this:

#include <IE.au3>

$oIE =_IECreate("http://www.deferncom.com/web1")
;_IEPropertySet($oIE, "height", 100)
;_IEPropertySet($oIE, "width", 100)

$oInputs = _IETagNameGetCollection($oIE, "input")
For $oInput in $oInputs
    If String($oInput.value) = "go now" Then
        _IEAction($oInput, "click")
        _IELoadWait($oIE)
        _IENavigate($oIE, "http://www.deferncom.com/page.php?3434")
        $oDiv2 = _IEGetObjById($oIE, "like")
        _IEAction($oDiv2, "click")
        _IELoadWait($oIE)
        ExitLoop
    EndIf
Next

You should not need the Sleeps when you use the _IE functions.

I don't see anything on the page in your sample with a value of "go now", so I couldn't take it any further.

thankss @DaleHohm yesterday i read about IELoadWait but ican implement now i can, but always persist a problem

the problem is: the IELoadWait cant handle the submit of the click, because always jump to the another page to fast, but if i remove all code less _IEAction($oInput, "click") the click is made.

i think is because the html element is ajax '<input type="button" id="u544078_1" onclick="return fbpage_set_fan_status(this, &quot;13159*****87891&quot;, 1, 1, null, null, {&quot;preserve_tab&quot;:true})" value="Me gusta">'

and as you can see the web is facebook.

#include <IE.au3>
$oIE =_IECreate("http://www.facebook.com/") 
;_IEPropertySet($oIE, "height", 100)
;_IEPropertySet($oIE, "width", 100) 
$oInputs = _IETagNameGetCollection($oIE, "input")
For $oInput in $oInputs    
        //in your languaje maybe is I like
    If String($oInput.value) = "Me gusta" Then   
        _IEAction($oInput, "click")         
                //the click is not made when the next code exist,if i remove next code works. when "me gusta"
        _IELoadWait($oIE)        
        _IENavigate($oIE, "http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=")      
        $oDiv2 = _IEGetObjById($oIE, "like")        
        _IEAction($oDiv2, "click")         
        _IELoadWait($oIE)         
        ExitLoop    
    EndIf 
Next

thanks excelent support

So what happens on the page when you click the button? What you need to do is to wait for some change on the page that indicates that the action associated with the click has completed... perhaps some text is displayed or something changes color - you'll need to figure out how to look for that change before moving on.
