How to click the button (onclick of javascript) without name/class?

[Archer]

Hi, all

I need to click the Login button after filling the Username/password. Now I could successfully set UserName/Password but how to use _IEActions to click the Login button which has a onclick behind (<INPUT onclick="return validate();" value="Log In" type="submit"> of the HTML code below). Thanks for your help!

I tried to get it via below code but cannot work. Is it because it's not a Object or something else? I'm not familiar with HTML so could you please help me out? Thanks.

$oInputs = _IETagNameGetCollection ($oIE, "input")
For $oInput In $oInputs
  MsgBox(0, "Form Input Type", "Form: " & $oInput.form.name & " Type: " & $oInput.type)
  If $oInput.type = "submit" Then
   MsgBox(0, "!!!!!!!!!!!!", "submit")
   _IEAction($oInput, "click")
   If @error Then
    MsgBox(0, "Error", @error)
   EndIf
   ExitLoop
  EndIf
Next

Below is part of HTML code.

<DIV align="center">
<FORM method="POST" name="loginForm" action="/LoginServlet">
<TABLE border="1" cellSpacing="0" cellPadding="0">
  <TBODY>
  <TR>
    <TD>
      <TABLE cellSpacing="0" cellPadding="2" width="200">
        <TBODY>
        <TR bgColor="#336699">
          <TD colSpan="2"><FONT color="#ffffff"
            face="Helvetica"><STRONG>Login</STRONG></FONT></TD></TR>
        <TR bgColor="#cccccc">
          <TD>          Username:         </TD>
          <TD><INPUT name="username" size="20" type="textbox"></TD></TR>
        <TR bgColor="#cccccc">
          <TD>          Password:         </TD>
          <TD><INPUT name="password" size="20" type="password"></TD></TR>
        <TR bgColor="#cccccc">
          <TD colSpan="2" align="center"><INPUT onclick="return validate();" value="Log In" type="submit">
        <INPUT value="Reset" type="reset"></TD></TR></TBODY></TABLE></TD></TR>
</TBODY></TABLE><!--
  <table border="1">
  <TR><TD>User Name</TD><TD><input name="username" type="text" value=""/></TD></TR>
  <TR><TD>Password</TD><TD><input name="password" type="password" value=""/></TD></TR>
  <TR><TD colspan="2" align="center"><input value="Login" type="submit"/></TD></TR>
  </table>
--><INPUT name="requestURL" value="/BuildSta.jsp?type=Test&amp;version=1.21"
type="hidden"></FORM></DIV>

Done....

I checked some topics in Autoit forum and found it may be caused that I debugged this code at IE9. I just now compiled and run against a IE 8 env. and everything's OK.

But still, why IE9 cannot work? Does Autoit need to fix it or a MS bug?

Most likely addressd in latest AutoIt beta - try it out.
