A few observations --

We can't run the code you posted, so it's difficult to know why it doesn't work as expected
You neglected to tell us the website, so we can't investigate further
Many websites implement frameworks or javascript libraries that can be difficult to automate.
The solution will often involve some library-specific coding.
Guessing that you are encountering a similar issue as here.

Hello @Danp2

Hope you are doing well.

This code is the same as you helped with

Just trying it to make it work with chrome/wddriver...

Danp2 · March 30, 2021

I took the initiative and create a free account that anyone can use for testing xMatters. Details are --

https://autoittester.xmatters.com/

User - Autoit

Password - Tester

So, now you should be able to supply a script that anyone can run to observe the outcome. :thumbsup:

Perhaps I wasn't clear when I made the above statement. My expectation was for you to use the website I posted above for testing this issue.

If you want further assistance, then you need to provide a short reproducer script that we can actually run.

Hi @Danp2

Thanks, sorry assumed you required what i tried so far...

Below is the code modified to work with the test account you had to create cause of me...so thankful to you for supporting and your intentions.

I never said that it worked. I was just showing you what I had hoped you had posted as a reproducer. 😒

Go back and reread my previous post, which points you to the javascript code necessary to make this work. I will eventually release an update to the UDF that will make this easier, but you're on your own for now.

HI @Danp2

Greetings of the day!

Yup understood your point that i should had created a test account for you or others to reproduce the issue, however dint knew that there can be a free account, since the company had the link integrated xmatters via okta in the apps list...and thought it would be a paid service.

Danp2 · March 31, 2021

Good Morning @Cyborg5000 :bye:

I was actually trying to point out that you didn't use the test site once it was available and that your script wasn't a "simple reproducer" because it contained a bunch of code that wasn't necessary to demonstrate the issue. I know that communication can sometimes suffer because of the medium, language barrier, etc. so no worries.

Hello @Danp2

Hope you are doing well!,

Yup agree with you over this. Thought it would be good to give and show the tried attempts.

Anyways, any pointers for setting the date 🤔

    If $iStyle = Default Then $iStyle = 0

    Switch $iStyle
        Case 0 ; Standard
            $sResult = _WD_ElementAction($sSession, $sElement, 'value', $sValue)
            $iErr = @error

            $sScript = "Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptor(window.HTMLInputElement.prototype, 'value').set.call(arguments[0], arguments[1]);arguments[0].dispatchEvent(new Event('input', { bubbles: true }));"

Hello @Danp2

I wonder how its easier for the MVP's to answer all the calls/questions that arise, Hat's off.✌️👏👍

Since i don't know json/js, it would had taken me no where than to struggle to find this.
