Can't to toggle IE offline mode

[hunt]

Hello. I have a problem. I can't to change state of IE offline mode.

In example, if to enable manually offline mode and to execute this code

$oIE = _IECreate("http://google.com")
_IEPropertySet($oIE, "offline", False)

then the offline mode does not change state.

How to solve this problem? I tested this on IE6 and IE8.

You need to do some error checking!

Most of the functions give you a return value and set the macros @error and @extended to let you know what problem occurred.

Return Value
Success:  Returns 1
Failure:  Returns 0 and sets @ERROR
@Error:  0 ($_IEStatus_Success) = No Error
3 ($_IEStatus_InvalidDataType) = Invalid Data Type
4 ($_IEStatus_InvalidObjectType) = Invalid Object Type
5 ($_IEStatus_InvalidValue) = Invalid Value
@Extended:  Contains invalid parameter number

So please change your code like this:

$oIE = _IECreate("http://google.com")
$iResult = _IEPropertySet($oIE, "offline", False)
ConsoleWrite("Return Value: " & $iResult & ", @error : " & @error & ", @extended: " & @extended)

Return Value: 1, @error : 0, @extended: 0

it seems there's only one way to solve this problem - to write value 0 in HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionInternet SettingsGlobalUserOffline Edited March 3, 2012 by hunt

Writing data to the registry is easy with AutoIt so I would try this.

other way does not exist?

I think this explains why _IEPropertySet doesn't work.
