So im creating a bot that logs in on a website. The website got a dropdown menu, and I have to choose the right one to login (Student)

#include <IE.au3>
#inculude <Inet.au3>

$oIE = _IECreate("<snip>")

$Name = _IEGetObjByName($oIE, "ssusername")
$Pass = _IEGetObjByName($oIE, "sspassword")
$dropdown = _IEGetObjByName($oIE, "usertype")

_IEPropertySet($Name, 'innerText', 'censored')
_IEPropertySet($Pass, 'innerText', 'censored')
_IEPropertySet($dropdown, 'innerText', 'Student') <------ How do I make the dropdown list select "Student"?

Does this even work? Normally you would want to us _IEFormElementSetValue.

Take a look at _IEFormElementOptionSelect.

It didn't work. Im new to AutoIT. Can you please write an example?

"Didn't work" isn't sufficient feedback. Next time, post the results from the Scite output window.

That didn't work either.

Here's a working example using the proper _IE functions --

#include <IE.au3>

$oIE = _IECreate("https://sms14.schoolsoft.se/engelska/jsp/Login.jsp?eventMessage=ERR_Not_Logged_In")

$oForm = _IEFormGetObjByName($oIE, 'userForm')
$Name = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oForm, "ssusername")
$Pass = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oForm, "sspassword")
$dropdown = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oForm, "usertype")

_IEFormElementSetValue($name, 'censored')
_IEFormElementSetValue($Pass, 'censored')
_IEFormElementOptionSelect($dropdown, 'Student', 1, 'byText')
_IEFormSubmit($oForm)

There are plenty of loop examples on the forum and in your help file.

I'm still not getting the big picture.  There shouldn't be any need to have to login hundreds of times.  Why not login once an pull all the data you need while in the single session?

I want it all to be repeated over and over again. I have now copy and pasted everything like 100 times, it works, but not as efficient.

 

Please explain clearly why this is needed at all before asking any other question.

@mLipok He wants to boost his login count on his school's website.   Is that accurate @ssah8 ?  

You wouldn't by chance be required to login so many times a week/period and/or get perks the higher your login count is...do you?  Artificially raising the login count still doesn't seem right to me.  There's got to be a reward for you doing so, otherwise you'd use some other web server.

It's just a fun thing to do, and why do you care? I get to do whatever I want to, I just needed help with that.

.. and why is that important? Doesn't sound as a very "smart" thing to do as it is likely logged.

Hello.

I was wondering how I could make a status info box in autoit. I can explain it in a sentence.

Let's say there is a number on a website (1). After some minutes, that number updates to another number (5). How do an status box that updates that number aswell in autoit? I am thinking of a GUI.

 

Thanks
