Form id

[Thornhunt 0]

ok im trying to use this string :

$oForm = _IEFormGetObjByName ($oIE, "falala")

normall this would work, as it did for this form

<form method="POST" action="balba" id="login_form" onsubmit="return Event.__inlineSubmit(this,event)">

however the second hasnt got a id, is it possible to use the class instead ?

<form class="checkpoint" action="/checkpoint/" method="post" onsubmit="return Event.__inlineSubmit(this,event)">

if you require a little more infomation or the means feel free to ask

thanks in advance

//edited, would a <div id= suffice instead of the form id ?

Read the remarks for _IEFormGetObjByName in the helpfile.

In case you follow through with Thornhunt's advice and still wonder how to proceed: you may want to iterate the collection and test each member for something that you know is unique about that form. If you know that the form is in a div with an id and that div contains only the single form then you could do something like

document.getElementById("div_id").getElementsByTagName("form")[0]

which would require just a few steps in an AutoIt script: capture document.getElementById("div_id") in a variable then use that object's getElementsByTagName to capture that collection in a variable then set your form's variable to the first member of that collection. There may be a way to do this utilizing IE.au3, I've just not used it myself if there is on account of most of my work with DOM being outside of AutoIt
