Winwait problem

[The Man]

I have a problem:

I use in my script the WinWait() command and it's not functioning with Mozilla FireFox but it works with Microsoft Internet Explorer ...

Whats wrong with my FireFox?

Let's take a look at your code please! I have no problem using WinWait() with Firefox here.

Your Opt("WinTitleMatchMode", '') is wrong or your title is wrong. If this doesn't work, then as LxP said... this is a moot question without any code.

Okay then heres the code:

source.au3

I believe that this line causes the problem for Firefox:

WinWait("Larkinor" , "Done")

If you inspect a Firefox window using AutoIt Window Info, you will find that Firefox windows do not display any text in a form that AutoIt can see -- hence your script will wait forever at this line. Removing the red portion will prevent this, however your script will not wait until the page finishes loading.

You will notice that the Stop button greys out when the page is ready. You could test for this using PixelGetColor().

The PixelGetColor() it's a good idea, only i dont know how to manage to pause the script until that pixel changes its color.Any suggestions?

Something like this will do it:

Do
    Sleep(50)
Until PixelGetColor(190, 66) <> 0xF00000

This works on my system but I've moved my toolbar icons since installing, so you'll need to adjust the values on the Until line.

Thanks for the help, it worked !!!
