mjoshi Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 Hi This is a small program which I have created : #include <IE.au3> $oIE = _IECreate ("www.autoitscript.com") Sleep(8000) Send ("{CTRLDOWN}") Sleep(1000) Send("t") Send("{CTRLUP}") _IECreate ("www.google.com") But instead of opening up google in the same IE in different tab, the script is opening separate IE. My requirement is to open up sites in same IE in different tabs, instead of multiple IE, as managing different IE becomes messy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zedna Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 (edited) Try to use _IEAttach() Edited December 25, 2011 by Zedna Resources UDF ResourcesEx UDF AutoIt Forum Search Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjoshi Posted December 25, 2011 Author Share Posted December 25, 2011 Try to use _IEAttach() Thanks, yes It worked!!! But I am not sure whether I am using _IEAttach function correctly. I tried reading AutoIt help also, but couldn't figure out a way of using it. So my code looks like this(which is working for now) #include <IE.au3> $oIE = _IECreate ("www.autoitscript.com") Sleep(5000) ;Send("^{TAB}") Send ("{CTRLDOWN}") Sleep(1000) Send("t") Send("{CTRLUP}") _IEAttach ("") Send("www.gmail.com") Send("{ENTER}") Now I have two questions: 1) Can I pass the value of URL(www.gmail.com in this case) from the _IEAttach function only? 2) When I made this script like this: #include <IE.au3> $oIE = _IECreate ("www.autoitscript.com") Sleep(5000) ;Send("^{TAB}") Send ("{CTRLDOWN}") Sleep(1000) Send("t") Send("{CTRLUP}") _IEAttach ("") Send("www.gmail.com") Send("{ENTER}") Sleep(3000) Local $oUser, $oPass, $oSubmit, $oInput If WinExists("Gmail: Email from Google") Then WinSetState("Gmail: Email from Google", "", @SW_MAXIMIZE) ;get the htm source Local $oInputs = _IETagNameGetCollection($oIE, "input") ;loop through elements and get the names of the text fields for user and pass For $oInput In $oInputs If $oInput.type = "text" And $oInput.name = "Email" Then $oInput.value = "xxxxxxxxxxxxx" If $oInput.type = "password" And $oInput.name = "Passwd" Then $oInput.value = "xxxxxxxxxxxx" Sleep(1200) If $oInput.type = "checkbox" And $oInput.name = "PersistentCookie" Then Send("{SPACE}") Sleep(1200) If $oInput.type = "submit" And $oInput.name = "signIn" Then _IEAction($oInput, "click") Next EndIf Send("{ENTER}") It was not working, the reason could be because of the line in the code : Local $oInputs = _IETagNameGetCollection($oIE, "input") Because the above line I guess, will pick the data from the first tab of IE, i.e. www.autoscript.com and not from www.gmail.com Can anyone suggest a solution? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zedna Posted December 25, 2011 Share Posted December 25, 2011 Ctrl+T can be optimized this way (not tested) #include <IE.au3> $oIE = _IECreate ("www.autoitscript.com") Send("^t") $oIE = _IEAttach ("") _IENavigate($oIE, "www.gmail.com") Resources UDF ResourcesEx UDF AutoIt Forum Search Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But still it is not working It is not opening gmail.com in the tabbed window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean there has to be a way in AutoIt by which we can open multiple tabs in IE and do some processing in each tab! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
