_IEProperty get troubles

[Jimbei]

I want to get the text of a link and give it a variable when I press a button within an embedded IE. I know this involves _IEPropertyget, but I don't know specifically how to do it. This is what I have so far:

#include <GUIconstantsEX.au3>
#include <IE.au3>
#include <GUIConstants.au3>

GUICreate("Triond Friender", 980, 600)
$GUIACTIVEX = GUICtrlCreateObj($OIE, 170, 5, 660, 590)
$SHELLOBJECT = ObjCreate("Shell.Explorer.2")
Global $BUTTON_COLLECT = GUICtrlCreateButton("Start", 5, 5, 80, 100)

While 1
    $msg = GUIGetMsg()
    Select
            Case $msg = $BUTTON_COLLECT
        _IEPROPERTYGET($OIE, "(inner/outer)text?")
        EndSelect
WEnd

Did you try the example script under _IECreateEmbedded()? Your example certainly will not run at all in that state. Your $OIE is never declared or set to anything, while $SHELLOBJECT is created but never used.

You've got the right idea to create a GUI button, and take an action when the button is pushed, though the GUI will not be visible to click on because you never used GuiSetState(). Start from the basic tutorials in the help file and get a good foundation in AutoIt.
