Selenium / Beautiful Soup / AutoItScript automation

[GoldenMike]

I've been using AutoIt for years, I love it and it has helped me greatly. I recently started learning other languages to help expand my knowledge and found that other languages are much faster in some regards.

I'm trying to automate a login to http://www.eedistribution.com/. I have tried this for IE with BeautifulSoup:

driver = webdriver.Ie("D:\\Python\\IEDriverServer32.exe")
driver.get("http://www.entertainmentearth.com/eedistribution.asp")
inputName = driver.find_element_by_name("custnum").send_keys("user")
passWord = driver.find_element_by_name("password").send_keys("password")
submit = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[@type='image']").click()

and this for firefox with BeautifulSoup:

driver = webdriver.Firefox()
driver.get("http://www.eedistribution.com/")
inputName = driver.find_element_by_name("custnum").send_keys("user")
passWord = driver.find_element_by_name("password").send_keys("password")
submit = driver.find_element_by_xpath("//input[@type='image']").click()

The website has two sides. Wholesale distribution and consumer. For some reason when I use the above scripts it takes me to the consumer side when I want to go to the wholesale side. If I manually enter user / password then I get into the wholesale side, and if use AutoIt it takes me to the wholesale side as well (this is where I want to go). I can't seem to figure out why?

Here is the AutoItScript:

oIE = _IEAttach("ee")
$user = _IEGetObjByName($oIE, "custnum")
$login = _IEGetObjByName($oIE, "password")
$oInputs = _IETagNameGetCollection($oIE, "input")
$user.value = "user"
$login.value = "password"
For $oInput in $oInputs
   If StringInStr($oInput.outerhtml, "signin_white.gif") > 0 Then
      $oInput.click()
      ExitLoop
   EndIf
Next

I apologize in advance for this not strictly being a AutoIt question, but am trying to learn more about how the web works in general and can't seem to understand this. As I am not a programmer and completely self taught I thought maybe someone with more experience might have an answer for this.

Thanks,

You need to revise your xpath. As is, you are grabbing the first input with a type of image, which isn't necessarily the correct one.

Danp2,

Thank you. I feel pretty dumb now. There is another input search I did not see. Should have assumed that if they did it in one place, they would do the other as well.

Thanks,

Mike
