2 windows with same name

[ssah8]

Hello.

I am trying to attach a window, but the problem is that there is already another window with the exakt same title. How do I do that?

(_IEAttach)

[Bert]

use the window handle

[ssah8]

How do I get the window handle? And how would the _IEAttach look like?

[Bert]

use the AutoIt window info tool.

[spudw2k]

WinGetHandle is one way.  You'll need to find someway to distinguish between the windows if they have the same name by say checking contents of window (controls and data) Try searching for some examples.

According to the help file article for _IEAttach(), the second parameter allows you to select the "mode" of operation,  So, by providing the window handle as the first param and providing the string "hwnd", guess what should happen?

[ssah8]

Where do I see the handle in the window info tool?

[spudw2k]

at the bottom, on the Window tab... where it says handle.

 

[ssah8]

$oIE2 = _IEAttach(0x00000000001A0C30, "embedded", 0)

This gives me this message:

"C:\Users\Admin\Desktop\backup.au3" (74) : ==> Variable must be of type "Object".:
For $oInput In $oInputs
For $oInput In $oInputs^ ERROR

Post a screenshot of the AutoIt Window Info tool when you hover over the window in question.

To save you the time instead of needed to check if the website doesn't allow bots, I have already checked. It doesn't have any rules against it.

There might be a problem in the code, that screws up everything. I can paste the whole program here:

               Next



               sleep(2000)




   EndSwitch

Now, with the new GUI, this error pops out, which is really weird

Unknown function name.:
Global $oIE = _IECreate("https://www.ytmonster.net/login")
Global $oIE = ^ ERROR

Can anyone reply?

ssah8,

Please do not bump your own threads within 24 hours.

Remember this is not a 24/7 support forum - those who answer are only here because they like helping others and have some time to spare.  You just have to wait until someone who knows something about your particular problem, and is willing to help, comes online.  Be patient and someone will answer eventually.  Or if not - tough!

Haha, yeah, oh im stupid xD

Now, the main question still remains unanswered.

Due there have been many questions, I will clarify what my main is:

expandcollapse popup

            $username1 = GUICtrlRead($username)

                  If $oInput.classname == "btn btn-success" Then _IEAction($oInput, "click")
               next

               Local $oInputs = _IETagNameGetCollection($oIE, "div")

                  If $oInput.classname == "button blue" Then _IEAction($oInput, "click")
               Next

               $handle = 0x00000000001A0C30

               $oIE2 = _IEAttach(0x00000000001A0C30, "embedded", 0)

               Local $oInputs = _IETagNameGetCollection($oIE2, "div")
               For $oInput In $oInputs
                  If $oInput.classname == "btn btn-success btn-sm" Then _IEAction($oInput, "click")
               Next

               sleep(2000)


   EndSwitch
WEnd
EndFunc

That is the code, the whole code, the whole program (far away from finished). In order for me to move on, I have to get past the _IEAttach problem. 

This is what I currently have: $oIE2 = _IEAttach(0x00000000001A0C30, "embedded", 0)

This is of course not the right way, that's why AutoIT crashes on me. Now, can anyone please tell me what's wrong with the _IEAttach line? It's probably something very simple.

[spudw2k]

The handle you are providing to the _IEAttach function is dynamic (it should change each execution at runtime).  You'll need a method to get the handle of the new window each time.

If there isn't an easy way to distinguish between the "parent" and new IE windows within the confines of the function above you may have to get fancy and do some running process analysis.

[ssah8]

So could you provde we with an example on how to get the handle of a specific browser window?

[Juvigy]

Try something like this:

Local $i = 1
While 1
    $oIE = _IEAttach("", "instance", $i)
    If @error = $_IEStatus_NoMatch Then
        $oIE = 0
        ExitLoop
    EndIf
    ConsoleWrite(_IEPropertyGet($oIE, "locationurl") &@CRLF)
    ConsoleWrite(_IEPropertyGet($oIE, "hwnd") &@CRLF)
    $i += 1
WEnd
