click a specific button script help

[r0guenj]

i am new to scripting and autoit and have a question regarding a simple facebook script i put together.

for example, the following button labeled Delete when viewing the element:

<a class="_56bs _3cqr _56bt" data-store="{&quot;optimistic_uri&quot;:&quot;\/a\/mobile\/friends\/reject?subjectid=100000344478532&amp;fref=m_find_friends&amp;gfid=AQBQH1d5Z99zck5f&quot;,&quot;optimistic_post_data&quot;:null}" href="#" role="button" data-ajaxify-href="" data-sigil="touchable ignore-request ajaxify"><span class="_55sr">Delete</span></a>

instead of recording my mouse pointer locations, i want to specify the buttons directly. this is what i came up with so far. it works, but misses buttons occasionally and i think specifying the buttons directly would work better.

#comments-start

 AutoIt Version: 3.x.x.x
 Author:         r0guenj

 Function:
    This Script will click the refresh page and select the visible delete buttons until stopped.

 The exit hotkey for this script is CTRL+ALT+x

#comments-end

;Assigns the HotKey to our custom exit function
HotKeySet("^!x", "MyExit")

; The coordinates to click in pixels


$i = 0
While $i <= 10
MouseClick("left",317,148,1)
Sleep(500)
MouseClick("left",1022,268,1)
Sleep(500)
MouseClick("left",1030,354,1)
Sleep(500)
MouseClick("left",1021,437,1)
Sleep(500)
MouseClick("left",1031,518,1)
Sleep(500)
MouseClick("left",1033,609,1)
Sleep(500)
MouseClick("left",1034,700,1)
Sleep(500)

  ; Uncomment the below line to make the script click only 10 times, or until the hotkey is pressed.
    $i = $i + 1

WEnd

Func MyExit()
  Exit
EndFunc

is there a way to do this?

Could you explain the purpose of your script (i.e. what is actually does)?  A better understanding may open up more suggestions.

Look at the IE* functions in the help file.

Run some of the examples.

Write some code.

If that code fails, post it and tell us what is going on.
