[zaky324]

Please be as specific as possible!

What Browser to you use (IE, FF, Chrome ..)?

i have IE, FF, Chrome. I'll use any browser that is capable of working with the function ''ControlClick''. Unless there aren't any lol.

I would suggest IE. Please hava a look at the builtin IE UDF. Functions _IEFormSubmit or _IEAction($o_object, "click") should do what you want.

[zaky324]

where do i find info on those functions?

[AdmiralAlkex]

where do i find info on those functions?

In the helpfile under "IE Management". Or just write the function name in index/search

[zaky324]

whats $o_object and how you find it?

View Google's source, find the object's name you want. Get object by name.

Example:

#include<IE.au3>
$oIE = _IECreate("www.google.com")
$oForm = _IEFormGetObjByName($oIE, "f")
$oInput = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oForm, "q")
_IEFormElementSetValue($oInput, "http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/functions/")
Send("{ENTER}")

i think ill stick with mouseclick, 1 more question. How do you set up a function that loops continuously until the set coordinates have the set pixel color? btw you guys are great help, im glad u guys are helping a complete noob like me.

Global $xCoordinate = x        ;Replace with x coordinate
Global $yCoordinate = y        ;Replace with y coordinate
Global $PixelColour = 000000      ;Replace with desired colour
Global $Pixel
Do
    $Pixel = PixelGetColor($xCoordinate, $YCoordinate)
Until Hex($Pixel, 6) = $PixelColour
Msgbox(0,"Colour Found", "The requested colour, "&$PixelColour&" was found at the coordinates of ("&$xCoordinate&","&$yCoordinate&").")

I haven't tested that one but it should do it.

[zaky324]

am i suppose to leave Global $Pixel blank? how does this ''Until Hex($Pixel, 6) = $PixelColour" decide when the coordinate has the set color? shouldnt there be some coordinates on that line too? and how do you find the top/left/bottom/right coords for pixelsearch?
