I am Almost There! ARRGH

[Sean78 0]

I had been using a script for over a year that had always worked flawlessy, until today. This script performs an automated login for our technicians, well the web address changed and I was easily able to correct that, there have been other changes to the new site apparently as now the command to submit or click on the Sign In button on the site doesn't work.

The site is:

https://connect.williams-int.com/customers/login.asp

It loads and puts in the username and password just fine, it won't click the Sign In button now. Can someone give me some help on this please. I know I must be close.

Thanks again guys for any help, this forum rocks!

After you send the password - can you just use the Send() function to send the ENTER key?

Not sure if that will help with everything, but I went to the site and the ENTER key works, just not the ID/PASSWORD combo, but I am sure that you have that info.

is it working like this?

#include <IE.au3>
$oIE = _IECreate ("https://connect.williams-int.com/customers/login.asp")
$oForm = _IEFormGetObjByName ($oIE, "LoginFrm")
_IEFormElementSetValue (_IEFormElementGetObjByName ($oForm, "userid"), "MyName")
_IEFormElementSetValue (_IEFormElementGetObjByName ($oForm, "password"), "MyPass")
_IEFormSubmit ($oForm, 0)
_IELoadWait($oIE)

_IEFormElementSetValue (_IEFormElementGetObjByName ($oForm, "password"), "MyPass")
_IEFormSubmit ($oForm, 0)
_IELoadWait($oIE)

It does the same thing as my current script, it will fill the information but not utilize the sign in button.

Not sure how the Send() function works, or is used. I will need to research it to figure out the syntax to make it work.

well thats strange, our comps have diffrent results, i`m getting "User ID not setup as an owner. " on the site as reaction on my post script, form your script i`m not getting anything more than fill the information part and

Okay changed it to this:

#include <IE.au3>

$oIE = _IECreate ("https://connect.williams-int.com/customers/login.asp")

$oForm = _IEFormGetObjByName ($oIE, "LoginFrm")

_IEFormElementSetValue (_IEFormElementGetObjByName ($oForm, "userid"), "User")

_IEFormElementSetValue (_IEFormElementGetObjByName ($oForm, "password"), "Pass")

Send("{ENTER}")

_IELoadWait($oIE)

Still the same problem, it will open the site, enter the user name and password but doesn't hit the "sign in". Am I using the Send() command wrong or will it simply not work.

Eh works for me.

Have you tried BogQ's script like this?

#include <IE.au3>
Global $oIE, $oForm, $oInputName, $oInputPass
$oIE = _IECreate ("https://connect.williams-int.com/customers/login.asp")
$oForm = _IEFormGetObjByName ($oIE, "LoginFrm")
$oInputName = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($oForm, "userid")
_IEFormElementSetValue ($oInputName, "MyName")
$oInputPass = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($oForm, "password")
_IEFormElementSetValue ($oInputPass, "MyPass")
_IEFormSubmit($oForm)

Only real change is using object variables, as they can't be passed directly. (and just made _IEFormSubmit() wait, instead of the extra line)

When running that I'm getting the "User ID not setup as an owner." message indicating that it attempted to log in.

Well it is working now, thanks for all the help gang. I can't get it to automatically login on my laptop, however the floor machines that need to use it are having no issues. Might be the IE version difference or something.
