Value changed visibly in webpage form but not actually?

[65535]

I am trying to make a autologin script for my CCTV DVR. The values change on the form visibly but not actually passed when the form submits.

DVR WEB PAGE CODE:

				<div class="loginbar">
					<div class="logo"><span class="desc"></span></div>
					<div id="logindesc" class="logindesc">Sign in with your account</div>
					<div style="height:32px;">
					<input type="text" class="inputtip logininputwidth" id="username" ng-model="username"maxlength="32" autocomplete="off" placeholder="{{oLan.username}}" />
					</div>
					<div style="height:32px;margin-top: 10px;">
					<input type="password" class="inputtip logininputwidth" id="password" ng-model="password" maxlength="16" placeholder="{{oLan.password}}" />
					</div>
						<div class="login-error">
                        <div id="ErrorTipdiv" class="inputValidTip" ng-show="szErrorTip!=''"><i class='error'></i><label ng-bind="szErrorTip"></label></div>
                        </div>
					<div>
					    <button type="button" class="loginbtn" ng-click="login()"><label ng-bind="oLan.login"></label></button>
					</div>
						<div class="login-item anonymous" ng-show="anonymous">
						<span ng-bind="oLan.anonymous" ng-click="login('anonymous')"></span>
					</div>

RELEVANT SCRIPT CODE:

$oIE = _IECreate("http://192.168.5.40")
_IELoadWait($oIE, 500)  ;Wait for the page to finish loading.

$oTag = _IEGetObjById($oIE,"username")
$x1 = String("user")

;_IEFormElementSetValue($oTag, $x1) - Tried this way as well.
$oTag.value = $x1
_IEAction($oTag,"click")
ConsoleWrite("username: " & $oTag & @CR)

$x2 = String("password")
Local $oTag = _IEGetObjById($oIE,"password")
;_IEFormElementSetValue($oTag, $x2) - Tried this way as well.
$oTag.value = $x2
_IEAction($oTag,"click")
ConsoleWrite("password: " & $oTag & @CR)

On the console I get blanks for username and password. But yet on the page itself the text appears.

Well for one thing

That's because $oTag is an object; I doubt you can write it to console.

Try ConsoleWrite("username: " & $oTag.value & @CR) just like you set it previously.

Great it shows the proper values with that fix. But now what? Why does the submit button treat it like its invalid?

Check for @error after every operation, that might help you determine where your script is failing.

Well nothing actually fails. The script completes without errors.

Does it do what you want it to do? If not, then it failed in some way.If it works, then you're done.

Maybe the value is written, but it's the wrong field or something, so no errors in the code, but no effect.
