maninternet Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 Hi all, I have plan to use Autoit to interact with the information that showed on webpage. By the way, as that website didn't support with Internet Explorer anymore (There are login step and process to check the browser that I cannot skip it). So I need to take all of my code to control on Microsoft Edge instead. I try to use _IEAttach to control "Edge" but it doesn't work. The _IEAttach always return error "7" that mean it cannot find the correct browser. Can anyone suggest me for the code to make _IEAttach control "Edge" or any others web browser (Opera / Maxthon / Chrome / Firefox) instead of "IE".

junkew Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 It depends on what you try to accomplish sometimes uiautomation is easier then webdriver/selenium. This is interesting but I do not think there is a way yet to control this from AutoIt https://playwright.dev/ maninternet 1 FAQ 31 How to click some elements, FAQ 40 Test automation with AutoIt, Multithreading CLR .NET Powershell CMDLets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try this method if you want to continue using the same functions for _IE * on Google Chrome: Install IE Tab extension for Google Chrome. Follow instructions and install IE Tab Helper too. Go to your webpage and activate Internet Explorer mode. Try to _IEAttach and check if all this work. Let me know if your page is loading well in this way.
