I know this question been asked before, but any chance we'll get a UDF for say.. opera, and firefox?

i have a question: how can get full name of a submit button knowing only half of the name?

ex:

3 INPUT -promote??????- Form Input Type: submit Value: Promote DispHTMLInputElement

Here -promote??????- is actually promote71377 but if i didnt know that, how can i get him?

in the code i get stuck in here.

_IELoadWait($oIE)

$o_all = _IETagNameAllGetCollection ($oIE)

$o_all.item("promote*").click

ive tryed with the * , but it didnt work.

[DaleHohm]

@michal.lowec - please open a thread in V3Support - this thread is too long to work point specific issues.

@sipher69 - I'll propose a quick answer here, but if you want to discuss further, please follow the advice above.

$o_inputs = _IETagNameGetCollection ($oIE, "Input")
For $o_input in $o_inputs
    if StringLeft ( $o_input.name, 7) = "promote" Then
        $o_input.click
        ExitLoop
    EndIf
Next

So, do we have enough to add a hWnd2Obj() function to ie.au3?

Lar.

Yes, but I an concerned about the requirement for the active accessibility library to be available - I need to research how to detect it an how to fail gracefully if it's not found.

Can anyone suggest the best way to click on a button that has no alt txt, or name set.

I tried _IEClickImg() with no luck

here is the source on the button.

<input type="button" value="Proceed to iSolutions" class="Button" onclick="return _doClick('85256E6A006A87B3.bcc52f37e0a63dff85256ef6005d6b31/$Body/0.238C', this, null)"></div></td></tr>

its inside of a form , would a form submit work?

[sipher69]

thank you Dale. i've managed to resolve the problem.

Many thanks.

I'll give a quick answer, but if this need more discussion, please add a post in V3 Support.

$o_inputs = _IETagNameGetCollection ($oIE, "Input")
For $o_input in $o_inputs
    if $o_input.value =  "Proceed to iSolutions" Then
        $o_input.click
        ExitLoop
    EndIf
Next

IEFormSubmit() could work but there is often Javascript attached to the submit button that makes that not work as expected.

thanks dale your the best,

i didnt want to post more questions here, could you look @ this for me?

http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=23856

[sipher69]

in this example, the "endfor" is "next"?

$o_inputs = _IETagNameGetCollection ($oIE, "Input")

For $o_input in $o_inputs

if $o_input.value = "Proceed to iSolutions" Then

$o_input.click

ExitLoop

EndIf

EndFor

[DaleHohm]

in this example, the "endfor" is "next"?

Doh! I'll go back And fix the two example I entered like that...

thanks - the on-the-fly interpreter has no syntax checker.

could someone post a usage format of this function?

_IEClickLinkByIndex()

[sipher69]

another button problem.

the source code looks like that:

'<input type="button" value="Stay in the ' + traininggrounds + '" name="' + traininggrounds + '

When i visualize the form elements they look something like that:

0 INPUT market Form Input Type: hidden Value: 1 DispHTMLInputElement

1 INPUT market Form Input Type: button Value: Stay in the market DispHTMLInputElement

if i try to see the value of "market" it shows "1" not "Stay in the.." so i cant push the button in my code.

i've tryed something like this, but it didn't work:

code:

$o_inputs = _IETagNameGetCollection ($oIE, "Input")

For $o_input in $o_inputs

if strleft($o_input.value,7) = "Stay in" Then

$o_input.click

ExitLoop

EndIf

next

[DaleHohm]

could someone post a usage format of this function?

_IEClickLinkByIndex()

_IEClickLinkByIndex($oIE, $index)

where $index is a number representing the position of the link of the colloection of all links on the page. This index starts with 0 and goes to [number of links - 1]

@sipher69 -- please post your question in the V3 Support Forum... this thread is too long to work poin-specific issue and others are also likely to jump in to help if you post a new thread.

can _IEBodyReadHTML() read the html out of a certain frame and not for the whole page?

[DaleHohm]

Yes. Just pass in a frame object instead of $oIE.

Here is my IELoadWait 'helper' function and samples how I use them from other functions.

Note the necessary page timeout feature for lazy pages or server downtime. Works for me.

TODO: Error tracking should be improved. (w/ SetError())

TODO: Return to calling page on failure.

Func _IELoadWait(ByRef $oIE, $iPageTimeout = 10)
;;TODO: Error tracking should be improved. (w/ SetError())
;;TODO: Return to calling page on failure.
    Local $iTimeIni = TimerInit()
    While TimerDiff($iTimeIni) < $iPageTimeout * 1000;convert to miliseconds
        Sleep(50)
        If Not $oIE.busy Then
            If $oIE.readyState = "complete" Or $oIE.readyState = 4 Then Return (1 And Not @error)
        EndIf
    WEnd
    $oIE.Stop ()
;$oIE.GoBack ()
    Return (0)
EndFunc  ;==>_IEWait


Func _IENavigate(ByRef $oIE, $sUrl, $iPageTimeout = 20)
    $oIE.navigate ($sUrl)
    Return (_IELoadWait($oIE, $iPageTimeout) And Not @error)
EndFunc  ;==>_IENavigate
Func _IEFormSubmitByName(ByRef $oIE, $sFormName, $iPageTimeout = 40);increase when uploading files
    $oIE.document.getElementById ($sFormName).submit
    Return (_IELoadWait($oIE, $iPageTimeout) And Not @error)
EndFunc  ;==>_IEFormSubmitByName
;;... and so on ...;;

I'm hoping I'm not making a newbie mistake with this, but I've spent so long on it that I'm going nuts.

I'm trying to make a script that loads ie and excel, and extracts the information from http://finance.yahoo.com/q/it?s=GM

and paste it into an excel file (the inside transaction table).

I'm having problems getting the table into an array with the _IETableWriteToArray() function. I've looked at the site code, but I can't make any sense of where the tables are at. I've tried just putting different numbers for the table, but I still come up with nothing.

Thanks in advance for any help.
