How do I get the control ID of a omnibox so I can use it in coding

[lostbit59]

I have a little bit of code that opens my browser (chrome), I want to enter a string into the

URL omnibox using ControlSend. Each time I launch the browser the control ID changes.

I need to find a way to fist get the control ID of the browser after it is opened and have the

id number be a value in a variable. Can some one tell me how to get the ID using autoit

code?

control id is not always required

This would even do the work

modify as per your needs

Opt ( 'WinTitleMatchMode', 2 )
;The previously ACTIVE window would be redirected to Google
ControlSend( 'Chrome', '', '[CLASS:Chrome_OmniboxView; INSTANCE:1]', '^a{DEL}http:\\www.google.com{ENTER}' )

Edit : please stick to one thread and wait for somebody to answer you
