Is there any statement similar to SQL like % operator in autoit ?


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I want to click a link by the element ID through IEGetObjById.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>

<button type="button" id="Random-1-ID" onclick="alert('Hello world!')"></button>
 
</body>
</html>

I intend to click the button with ID"Random-1-ID". But on every refresh the ID changes to next number like "Random-2-ID" "Random-3-ID"

 

The code i which i wrote for this function is

#include <IE.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>

Local $oIE = _IECreate("I:\Documents\1. Work\Automation\My codes\Collections\11. Clicking button by Value and ID\button.html")
Local $oDiv = _IEGetObjById($oIE, "Random-1-ID")
_IEAction($oDiv, "click")
_IELoadWait($oIE)

So can anyone help me to alter this code like it clicks for every ID in format "Random-%-ID"

Paranthaman,

you need to be more patient. According to the forum netiquette you need to wait at least 24 hours before bumping a thread.
And do not PM users to help you. That's what the forum is intended for.

We all are volunteers here. So if anyone can help he will. If no one answers then the problem might be too specific and no one knows an answer.

Try:

#include <IE.au3>

Local $oIE = _IECreate("http://html.com/input-type-button/", 1)
_IELoadWait($oIE)
Local $oButtons = _IETagNameGetCollection($oIE, "Input")
For $oButton In $oButtons
    If StringLeft($oButton.value, 6) = 'Click ' Then  MsgBox(64, 'Button Found', 'Button found with value: ' & $oButton.value)
    _IEAction($oButton, 'click')
Next
