Since IE9 status "done" was removed HELP !

[tonycst]

Is there any way for autoit to detect that window titled "what ever" is finished loading ?

In the past i would simply check by "statusbargettext" (or something like that) but since ie9, that word as well as waiting and other status related messages are now permanently remove (thanks to some genius idiot)

Please  help. i have a script that beeps when page is finished loading. Now it wont beep anymore.

I found this page:

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/180366

But its all C++ and i dont have any idea how to use any winapi with autoit, let alone understand it.

If StatusbarGetText($Transfer) = $StatusBarMSG Then ;does not work with firefox window
    SoundPlay($BeepSound, 0)
Endif

as simple as that.

I can get the beep using the document 'ReadyState' property.

More info and a demo can be found here: http://www.w3schools.com/jsref/prop_doc_readystate.asp

thats java script.

Thanks but i ended up finding _IELoadWait() which sucks because it only works for IE

@tonycst So what are you wanting to wait for? You're not going to find a single function that works in every conceivable application; you have to be a bit more specific.

I am waiting for a page to change its status from loading to complete.

I solved this problem by attaching the window with _IEAttach() and then doing the following.
 

If _IEPropertyGet ($IE,"busy") = 1 Then
              _IELoadWait ($IE)
              SoundPlay($BeepSound, 0)
EndIf

Once page is loaded, i get my beep.

So go ahead and mark this topic as "solved" if possible because now i have a different issue relating to If _IEPropertyGet ($IE,"busy") which i posted separately.

Thanks for quick response.

@tonycst you can mark it solved yourself by editing your initial post.
