WHRobin566 Posted July 12, 2005 Share Posted July 12, 2005 Is it possible to have internet explorer to run in the background so they can't see it and get some text from a site? Thanks! Witch Hunter Robin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! <{POST_SNAPBACK}>In Run() put @SW_HIDE? And then ControlGetText? Dunno, what your trying to do really, looks fishy... but this is just a guess.

WHRobin566 Posted July 12, 2005 Author Share Posted July 12, 2005 Dunno, what your trying to do really, looks fishy... but this is just a guess.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Well all im really doing is its like inputbox you type in a website and it gets the text from the website they put in. Not sure why anyone would need that but i might use it . Witch Hunter Robin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't mess w/ browsers, so again I'm just guessing. Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer.

WHRobin566 Posted July 12, 2005 Author Share Posted July 12, 2005 (edited) Well how would you do that? Have to open a view source on a hidden browser. Then how do you take out all the fancy html stuff? That be very hard. Thanks tho! Edit: I think its impossible to get text off a site without like 500 lines of codeing to view the source and remove all that html. Err so much for my program. Wasted all that time trying to make it.

WHRobin566 Posted July 12, 2005 Author Share Posted July 12, 2005 Well ok.. But anyways if you use objcreate and set visable to false then can you use the ctrlsend to use ctrl + a ctrl + c? I tryed but i dont think it works. Thanks! Witch Hunter Robin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
