IE process ID - multiple process in process list

[mLipok]

 

I have a problem with the automation of a website. 

This website uses Java (EDIT: I mean JavaScript) to display content. 

The problem is that the solutions acting on the basis of 

     $state = _IEPropertyGet ($oIE, "readyState") 

     $state2 = _IEPropertyGet ($oIE, "busy")

not work correctly. 

 

I got the idea to check if the iexplorer.exe still consumes CPU time, or whether changes its memory requirements. 

 

Here I came across a problem: 

running a single browser iexplorer.exe processes have several instances of the program EDIT: in process list. 

 

Question:

how to get the PID based on the window HWND or under $oIE object ?

I assure you they are working "correctly" - it is your understanding of how they work that is incorrect

To get the HWND, use _IEPropertyGet($oIE, "hwnd")

Thank you for your commitment. 

But that's not the point. 

I asked "How to get Process ID" I mean PID of iexplorer.exe.

 

The problem is to take the proper PID of the process taking into account that in the list of processes, there are 3 process with name "iexplorer.exe", so I can not use,    ProcessExists ( "iexplorer.exe" ).

 

EDIT:

I know how to get HWND using $oIE.

As, however, on the basis of these two pieces of information, how to determine the correct PID?

So maybe there is another problem:

here is part of my script:

While 1
        Sleep(50)
            While 1
                $state = _IEPropertyGet($oIE, "readystate")
                $state2 = _IEPropertyGet($oIE, "busy")
                If ($state = 4 Or $state = 'complete') And $state2 = False Then ExitLoop
                Sleep(50)
            WEnd
        ; $oIE_ctl00_MainContent_ddlAdvStatus = _IEGetObjById($oIE, "MainContent_ddlAdvStatus")
        $oIE_ctl00_MainContent_ddlAdvStatus = _IEGetObjByName($oIE, 'ctl00$MainContent$ddlAdvStatus')
        _IEFormElementOptionSelect($oIE_ctl00_MainContent_ddlAdvStatus, "Wszystkie wpisy, w tym wykreślone", 1, "byText")
        $v_option_get_value = _IEFormElementGetValue($oIE_ctl00_MainContent_ddlAdvStatus)
        If $v_option_get_value = 8 Then
            ExitLoop
        Else
            _IEFormElementOptionSelect($oIE_ctl00_MainContent_ddlAdvStatus, "Wszystkie wpisy, w tym wykreślone", 8, "byIndex")
        EndIf
    WEnd

<SELECT style="WIDTH: 318px" id=MainContent_ddlAdvStatus name=ctl00$MainContent$ddlAdvStatus> <OPTION value=0>Wszystkie wpisy, bez wykreślonych</OPTION> <OPTION selected value=8>Wszystkie wpisy, w tym wykreślone</OPTION> <OPTION value=1>Aktywny</OPTION> <OPTION value=2>Wykreślony</OPTION> <OPTION value=3>Zawieszony</OPTION> <OPTION value=4>Oczekuje na rozpoczęcie działalności</OPTION> <OPTION value=5>Nie rozpoczął działalności</OPTION> <OPTION value=9>Działalność prowadzona wyłącznie w formie spółki/spółek cywilnych</OPTION> <OPTION value=11>Przeniesiony niezgodnie z Ustawą</OPTION></SELECT>

QUESTION:

Is such a function should be sufficient to correct the settings using _IEFormElementOptionSelect ()?

If yes:

I use this function in my program and very ofen, the results displayed by using the key "Search" is incorrect in relation to the goals. I suspect JavaScript.

 

---

A similar problem relates to the use _IEFormElementSetValue () on the field: 

<INPUT style="WIDTH: 135px" id=MainContent_txtAdvPesel maxLength=11 type=text name=ctl00$MainContent$txtAdvPesel>

The content of this field is subject to verification by JavaScript. This field contains an identifier that contains the check digit (checking mechanism is generally known). 

 

Despite enter the correct values​​ (I did the verification algorithm), JavaScript has a tendency to remove the value set by me.

 

EDIT:

Does anyone have any further possible comments or ideas?

mLipok,

thanks

I glanced quite possible that will help for the time being, however, do not have access to the site (login page requires the use of cryptographic cards)

[DaleHohm]

readyState designates the completion status of a data request made by the browser and the browser's rendering of the returned data.  readyState is of little use to you when the request for data is performed asynchronously (using AJAX/XMLHttpRequest methods).  The most common way of addressing that problem is to examine some content on the page that changes and indicates to you that the action you were waiting for is complete (look for the existence of an element or look at the content of an element with something like _IEPropertyGet, "outerhtml").

@DaleHohm

Thanks.

I hope that tomorrow I can try your concept.

Hi mLipok

have a look to >this post of Mr. DaleHohm about how to get the PID of the iexplore process in @extended

also, have a look to the iexplore's startup parameter -noframemerging (i think) it should run iexplore in it's own process (I have not tested it)

Thanks @PincoPanco

Your tip led me to another solution.

 

Before asking a question I had not thought about a simpler solution.

I could after all get the PID using the name of the window.

WinGetProcess ( "title" [, "text"] )

 

Apart from this, I have prepared an example based on the solution proposed by @ kylomas

Here is my example:

_IE_Wait_notCpuMemoryChanges() and _IE_GetPid() - as suplement for _IELoadWait()
