Hi everybody
Currently I need to tick a checkbox that runs on IE. But I can't click on it. Although the correct object has been specified. Here is my code:
#include <IE.au3> $oIE = _IEAttach("WEB") $oLinks = _IETagNameGetCollection($oIE, 'span') For $oLink In $oLinks $a = String($oLink.classname) == 'x-column-header-text' $b = StringLeft(String($oLink.id), 10) == 'gridcolumn' If $a And $b Then _IEAction($oLink, "click") ConsoleWrite("Founded" & @CRLF) ExitLoop Else ConsoleWrite("Not Found" & @CRLF) EndIf Next After inspecting the element it shows only 1 line of code:
<div class="x-column-header x-column-header-checkbox x-column-header-align-left x-box-item x-column-header-default x-unselectable x-column-header-first x-grid-hd-checker-on" id="gridcolumn-1588" style="margin: 0px; left: 0px; top: 0px; width: 24px; right: auto; border-top-width: 1px; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-left-width: 1px;"> <div class="x-column-header-inner" id="gridcolumn-1588-titleEl"> <span class="x-column-header-text" id="gridcolumn-1588-textEl"></span> </div> </div> Here is an image of the checkbox:

I used more ways to check:
- _IEGetObjById => IEAction($oLink, "click") not working
- _IETableGetCollection => _IETableWriteToArray gives an error
- _IEImageClick
All are not working.
Hope to get a response from everyone.
Thank you very much.

I have a few questions:
BACKGROUND
I am using Oracle Application Testing Suite's OpenScript 13 (Eclipse IDE), Oracle Java 6, and AutoIt.
My goal is to access a given Internet Explorer browser window (`$ieTitle`), send the keystroke of "shift-control-s" for "Save As" functionality to be invoked, so that I can download a (PDF) file to a given location ($fileName).
The code within the script `DownloadPdfFile.au3` is
$ieTitle = $CmdLine[1] $ieControl = "AVL_AVView31" $fileName = $CmdLine[2] ControlFocus($ieTitle, "", $ieControl) ControlSend($ieTitle, "", $ieControl, "+^s") ; Save as dialog $winTitle = "Save As" ; wait for Save As window WinWait($winTitle) ; activate Save As window If Not WinActive($winTitle) Then WinActivate($winTitle) ControlFocus($winTitle,"","Edit1") ControlSetText($winTitle,"","Edit1",$fileName) Sleep(2000) ControlClick($winTitle,"","Button3") Exit 0 So I compiled it with SciTE-Lite (32-bit Version 4.4.6 , creating `DownloadPdfFile.exe`, and so within my Java code, I have
String command = autoItExePath + " " + scriptPath + " \"" + winTitle + "\" " + directoryPath.toFile().toString() + "\\Form9Report" + sdf_ddmmmyyyy.format(new Date()) + ".pdf"; try { Process process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command); process.waitFor(); } catch (Exception e) { logger.error("Exception " + e.getMessage(), e); } The output would be like `C:\Program Files (x86)\AutoIt3\AutoIt3.exe C:\...\AutoItScripts\DownloadPdfFile.au3 "https://****.com/****.exe?temp_id=**** - Internet Explorer" C:\...\Report05Apr2022.pdf"` which does run without the $cmdLine successfully. 
When executed by Java, I see in the taskbar an icon, which I right-click has "[Check] Script Paused" and "Exit".
Questions:
(1) How do I unpause the script?
(2) How do I avoid having the script paused?
Any help is appreciated.

Hi all,
I've been using the following code for many years for the sole purpose of tracking my app usage via Google Analytics:
;GOOGLE ANALYTICS $AppStatsName = @ScriptName $GA = _IECreate("https://mywebserver/apps/stats/" & $AppStatsName & ".html", 0, 0, 0, 0) The app simply calls a blank .html page on my webserver which only contains the GA tracking code.
The $iVisible parameter is set to "0" in my case, which means the IE browser is invisible to the user.
I noticed in Windows 11, the URL is called in the Edge browser and is not invisible.
So, I wonder if anyone out there has any suggestions on calling a URL invisibly on any operating system?
Thanks!

I am looking to create a script which refreshes/reads a webpage every few seconds. My goal is to see if the page has changed, then I will send myself a notification that the webpage has been updated.
 
However, rather than downloading the entire webpage every single time, is there a way to check when the webpage last updated?
 
If not, is there away to partially download/read html source until a specific tag is hit?
 
Goal: I would like to increase my poll rate and not excessively waste data.
