PoojaKrishna · June 10, 2017

Hi friends,

I'm trying to click on an IE element with text "Turbo". Please see the information of control by F12 - Tool.

<nav class="left"><a class="nav-item active" href="#">Turbo</a><a class="nav-item " href="#">Intraday</a><a class="nav-item " href="#">Long term</a><a></a></nav>

Actually, that item is a link. Show your code if you want additional help / feedback.

Func _SelectTurbo()
    Local $oLinks = _IELinkGetCollection($oIE)
    Local $iNumLinks = @extended
    Local $sTxt = $iNumLinks & " links found" & @CRLF & @CRLF
    For $oLink In $oLinks
        $sTxt &= $oLink.text & @CRLF
    Next
    MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Text:", $sTxt)

EndFunc ;=> _SelectTurbo

Thank you so much for your reply. 46 links found, but none of them has text "Turbo".

You could try something like:

#include <IE.au3>

Local $oIE = _IECreate("www.domain.com")
_IELoadWait($oIE)
Local $oLinks = _IETagNameGetCollection($oIE, "a")
For $oLink In $oLinks
    If $oLink.ClassName = "nav-item" And $oLink.InnerText = "Turbo" Then
        MsgBox(4096, "href attribute", $oLink.GetAttribute("href").value)
    EndIf
Next

PoojaKrishna · June 10, 2017

Func _SelectTurbo()
    $nFound = 0
    Local $oLinks = _IETagNameGetCollection($oIE, "a")
    For $oLink In $oLinks
        If $oLink.ClassName = "nav-item" Or $oLink.InnerText = "Turbo" Then
            $nFound = 1
            MsgBox(4096, "href attribute", $oLink.GetAttribute("href").value)
        EndIf
    Next
    If $nFound = 0 Then
        Msgbox(0,"Not Found", "Not Found")
    EndIf
EndFunc ;=> _SelectTurbo

Thank you for your reply Subz but sorry resulted in nothing. No links found with the class name and inner text.

Actually should have tested first the code should be:

#include <IE.au3>

Local $oIE = _IECreate("www.domain.com", 1)
_IELoadWait($oIE)
Local $oLinks = _IETagNameGetCollection($oIE, "a")
For $oLink In $oLinks
    If $oLink.ClassName = "nav-item active" And $oLink.InnerText = "Turbo" Then
        MsgBox(4096, "href attribute", $oLink.GetAttribute("href"))
    EndIf
Next

Displays nothing.

_IELoadWait($oIE)
Local $oNavs = _IETagNameGetCollection($oIE, "nav")
For $oNav In $oNavs
   $oLinks = _IETagNameGetCollection($oNav, "a")
   For $oLink In $oLinks
       If $oLink.InnerText = "Turbo" Then MsgBox(0, "" "found it")
   Next

Nothing displayed.

Weird because it returns "#" for me based upon your html above, you could try ditching the ClassName and just have If $oLink.InnerText = "Turbo" that worked for me as well.

Can you post console information when you run the code?

Edited June 10, 2017 by Subz

PoojaKrishna · June 10, 2017

Yes, it returns all other links but not this one.

PoojaKrishna · June 10, 2017

Can it be any other property than inner text of the link?

No console information.

As long as the webpage is open in IE it returns # for me, I'm assuming you are removing the actual hyperlinks from href? Can you confirm that when Turbo is "active/selected" that it has a value under href?

Danp2 · June 10, 2017

Have you checked to see if there are any frames in use?

Turbo is active and "#" is under href.

<nav class="left"><a class="nav-item active" href="#">Turbo</a><a class="nav-item " href="#">Intraday</a><a class="nav-item " href="#">Long term</a><a></a></nav>

No luck yet. Planning to click by click coordinates. I will update if I get any other solution.

Thank you so much for your time friends.
