Hello!

I want AutoIT to open a browser without actually showing the browser on screen.

I want AutoIT to do stuff on the internet without showing it on the screen.

How can I do this?

Hello. Probably reading AutoIt help file or doing a simple google search to get results.

 

Saludos

The brackets [] denote (optional and default values) parameters.  They should not be supplied to a function, just the acceptable input values/types for the given function.

edit: in fact, there appear to be other parameters that proceed the visible param.  You'll need to set them too.


From the help file, " Many functions contain optional parameters that can be omitted. If you wish to specify an optional parameter, however, all preceding parameters must be specified!
For example, consider Run ( "filename", ["workingdir" [, flag]] ). If you wish to specify the flag, you must specify a workingdir. "

 

So, for the _IECreate function 
_IECreate ( [$sUrl = "about:blank" [, $iTryAttach = 0 [, $iVisible = 1 [, $iWait = 1 [, $iTakeFocus = 1]]]]] )

You would do
_IECreate('http://google.com', 0, 0)

Do not specify the name of the parameter variable...just the value you want to assign.

;BAD
_IECreate ($sUrl = "about:blank", $iTryAttach = 0, $iVisible = 0)

;Good
_IECreate("about:blank", 0, 0)

look up one post and see the answer.

 

If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.

I'm pretty sure that no one can help what's wrong here.
