IE.au3 error (Line 715)


Recommended Posts

Hi,

Version: Autoit v3.3.14.1, IE3 T30-2 released 20140819

Hoping someone can point me in the right direction. I've been struggling over this error the last week and unable to find a solution or work around.

Similar issue?

 

Description of issue: I have an AutoIt script that attaches to an IE9 session and parses an iframe containing patient demographics (name, medical record #, etc) that seems to be working for the first few seconds to minutes but eventually errors out with the error below. Always consistently on line 715. When initially run, it will return valid and correct information but it will eventually error out. Initially I thought it was because I was switching from patient to patient (i.e. catching it when there was no data) but when I don't do anything at all (no activity on the IE9 web page), it will still give an error. I have not found any posts about this specific error at line 715. Any guidance to solving this error is grateful.

Thank you @mLipok

I guess this IS the same issue that you have mentioned in the previous posts.

I was hoping that it was just me doing something wrong and there is a "simple" fix since there were no error reports pointing to this specific line in IE.au3.

Looks like this bug is still open for the last 9 months.

I guess I'll also try to roll back to 3.3.12 to see if that fixes it.
