Netscape Status Bar

[mattress]

Can the status bar data from Netscape Navigator be read by StatusBarGetText? In the window spy it reads it as status bar text 4, I tried:

Opt("WinTitleMatchMode",2)

$t = StatusBarGetText("Netscape", 4)

MsgBox(0, "Test", $t)

I get a blank in the msgbox. I read the help file about the statusbargettext command, and was thinking maybe Netscape uses it's own verson of the common control that AutoIt reads for the return data.

My suggestion is to use AutoItspy, if you can see it there, you can see it in AutoIt. If not? well you might have to jump a few hoops.

Statusbar text in Firefox is not readable the normal way, I haven't tested other methods yet.

I can see it in the AutoIt spy, #4 in the status bar text field.

Is my syntax incorrect? Kinda weird.

Thanks for the response.

Tested it with MSIE, tried to view line 5 of the Status Bar Text, same problem, there is text in the field, seems to only want to view default #1 bar from MSIE.

You're using incorrect syntax. You' trying to match a window with the title "Netscape" and the text "4". In short, you're putting the field you want to read where the text goes.

StatusBarGetText("Netscape", "", 4)

Rock on, that worked, figured I screwed it up, I'm a recent V2 convert
