Not able to click the Save button when dialog is not having the focus

[arpan]

Hi Folks,

I have written a script for file download for IE.

It works fine if the focus is on the download box. So explicitly I am trying to get the focus on the download window Sometimes it works , sometimes doesn't.

Earlier I tried doing by using the window names directly but it was not working so i have tried using windows but same results

One more scenario is : click on the download link in IE page, see the dialog box, open instance of chrome or opera browser. And run the script it fails. I am not sure why its happening.

Can any one tell what went wrong?

_Any help will be fine _

I am attaching the script example here:

expandcollapse popup

AutoItSetOption("WinTitleMatchMode","2") ; 
; wait Until dialog box appears and timemout of 10 seconds.
$wait = WinWait("Download","",30)
$title = WinGetTitle("Download") 
$handle = WinGetHandle($title)
WinActivate($handle)
If $wait =0 Then
Exit
EndIf 
If (StringCompare($CmdLine[2],"Save",0) = 0) Then
$wait = WinWaitActive($handle,"",10)
If $wait =0 Then
Exit
EndIf
ControlClick($handle,"","Button2")
$wait = WinWait("Save","",5)
If $wait =0 Then
Exit
EndIf
$title = WinGetTitle("Save")
$handle = WinGetHandle($title)
if($CmdLine[0] = 2) Then
$wait = WinWaitActive($handle,"",5)
If $wait =0 Then
Exit
EndIf
ControlClick($handle,"","Button2")
Else
;Set path and save file
$wait = WinWaitActive($handle,"",10)
If $wait =0 Then
Exit
EndIf
ControlSetText($handle,"","Edit1",$CmdLine[3])
ControlClick($handle,"","Button2")
Exit
EndIf
EndIf

Did you try to get the url of download link, to use with inetget ?

@Wakillon.

Thanks but we are not supposed to give or know the URL of the download location.

We need to simulate the user behaviour. And wait for the popup to come and click.

Again some times we want to read the text of the dialog window (content on the dialog box)

I found a forum discussion on the same. Looks like its a limitation with RDP. Here is the link:
