ControlSend for Chrome

[Chiitus]

Hi guys, i'm trying to send a command to Chrome with ControlSend, but i can't, i had read some @junkew post about this, but is too much information for now, i need some fix quickly, can you guys help me please.

This is the code i tried, with no success:

ControlSend("[CLASS:Chrome_WidgetWin_1]", "", 199624464, "Test")

BUMP!

Hi Chiitus,

It will be difficult to help without knowing some background info on the webpage, Are you able to provide a screenshot of the AU3info.exe output, when you select the control you're trying to access? (I assume this is what you were using?)

Also the additional code around this line would be useful, as it may not be an issue with this command, but the code leading up to the controlSend function.

It may be worth adding the following to your script for testing:

local $Test = ControlSend("[CLASS:Chrome_WidgetWin_1]", "", 199624464, "Test")
ConsoleWrite($Test & @CR)

What does that return? If it returns 0 to the output window in ScITE, then the control cannot be found.

Thanks

Javi

controlsend does NOT work on Chrome.

you need to work with this: '?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>>

once you put forth an effort to do this and show us what you done, then we will help you further.

ControlSend works fine on chrome for me, just needs to be active.

EDIT:

WinActivate("[CLASS:Chrome_WidgetWin_1]")
WinWaitActive("[CLASS:Chrome_WidgetWin_1]")

ControlSend("[CLASS:Chrome_WidgetWin_1]", "", "[CLASS:Chrome_RenderWidgetHostHWND; INSTANCE:1]", "Test")
