Problem with Text from HTML page

[atzoref]

Hi,

I am using this function to read the the text from Internet Explorer,

$sText = _IEBodyReadText($oIE)

It works good until now.

After this I use this function to search a specific string in this text:

StringInStr($sText,$Num & ". command 0 completed")

The problem is that it is doesn't recognize on some cases the string to find, even when I see the string is actually there on the HTML page.

(MsgBox not shows all the text due to screen limitation and there is no scroolbar to the popup to debug)

I have 2 question:

1) Is there a limitation of the text which fetch from the BODY of the HTML with the _IEBodyReadText($oIE) function?

2) Is there a limitation of the text which can works with the StringInStr function?

Thanks.

Replace MsgBox with ConsoleWrite and you will see all the text in the output pane of SciTE.

...and there are no practical limitations to string length in either of those functions.

But do you know if there is may be a limitation to the string in these functions?

The maximum - theoretical - string length is about 2GB.

atzoref,

If you can identify a page that FAILS your string comparison then look at the part that you think should match using a hex editor. I've seen some pages that have what looks like a "space" but is not a "x20".

Good Luck,
