Background Function

[allcapone1912]

need to run a function in background or under a message/image so that the function steps will not be visible when its running

 

example:

 

; Hidden Step

Run("firefox.exe")

navigate some page,copy some info

End

; 

 

while function is running user will see only a mesage("Waiting") or and image

Try using

Shellexecute (parameter for hidden start!)

IE.au3 or FF.au3

or even try _InetGetSource ...

did your script follows the Forum Rules ?

Did you give xeno's solution a try?

If so, how did it go?

@Muzaiyan I'm fairly sure they are within the rules

For my script i have to use only Mozilla Firefox(No IE)

Always "fun" to see the "some web page" need to copy "some data" questions and, after some generic answers are given the next piece of info pops up.

Oh well.. going back to fly-on-the-wall mode until some proper requirements are defined.

I'm fairly certain xeno answered your question, all you need to do is do a deep dive into the FF.au3, since you have just now specified that you can only use that browser.
