WebDriver UDF - Help & Support (IV)

[NolleWed]

but my other problem is not solved. What did I do if there is no ID I can search for?

All other buttons have this HTML code, only the value is the difference and the form where the button lies:

<input type="submit" value="XXX">

example for a button in form 4:

<input type="submit" value="AKM-TR Weitergeleitet">

$FCM_FORMULAR_PPC_DETAILS2 = _IEFormGetObjByName($oIE, "fcmPpcDetailsForm",4)
_IEFormSubmit ($FCM_FORMULAR_PPC_DETAILS2, "AKM-TR Weitergeleitet")
_IELoadWait($oIE)

How can I find this elements and click on it?

@NolleWedThere is a list of tools in the Webdriver wiki page that are designed to assist you in identifying the correct xpath or CSS selector.

With this link I tried to find out the xpath, but I don´t know what to do: How to search by Xpath/Css in Chrome Developer Tools? | testerlive (wordpress.com)

With F12 I open the console and find the element in HTML code like I always do it

<input type="submit" value="AKM-TR Weitergeleitet">

Then I went to console and type in $x("//input") and get 96 results

But now I don´t know how to put this in an xpath code 😌

Normaly I use //input[@name='xxx'] or  //input[@src='xxx'] or //input[@id='xxx'] , but there is no name, scr or id

Please help

If you used one of the free tools like SelectorsHub, it would automatically supply you with an xpath selector like

//input[@value='AKM-TR Weitergeleitet']

 

[NolleWed]

Can´t use the free tool, because I have no rights to install tools on my PC (at work) 

 

all buttons with type submit in the HTML code:

<input type="submit" value="XXX">

work fine with this code:

Local $sButton2 = _WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, "//input[@value='XXX']")
_WD_ElementAction($sSession, $sButton2, 'click')
_WD_LoadWait($sSession, 2000)

Thanks

@NolleWedYou can't even install a browser extension? 🤨

[PaulS]

I'm working on an AutoIT script to keep Edge Webdriver up to date.  When the logged in user has admin permissions to the computer, the script works well.  If not, both  _WD_IsLatest_Release and _WD_UpdateDriver fail with @error=$_WD_ERROR_GeneralError.  The update also fails when logged in as a standard user using RunAs administrator.

I have attached the script and one of the log files for reference purposes.  At 08:12 in the log file, I ran the script logged in as an admin user.  All other attempts were run as a standard user.

Any suggestions?

 

WebDriverUpdate.au3Fetching info... WebDriverUpdateDebug.logFetching info...

Edited September 28, 2022 by PaulS

[Danp2]

@PaulSIf you look at _WD_IsLatestRelease, it is simply performing an InetRead against the URL "https://github.com/Danp2/au3WebDriver/releases/latest", which shouldn't require any special permission AFAIK. What OS are you using?

What do you get for output from the following?

Local $sGitURL = "https://github.com/Danp2/au3WebDriver/releases/latest"
    Local $sResult, $aOptions = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 8]
    For $iOption In $aOptions
        $sResult = InetRead($sGitURL, $iOption)
        ;### Debug CONSOLE ↓↓↓
        ConsoleWrite('@@ Debug(' & @ScriptLineNumber & ') : $iOption = ' & $iOption & '  >  Error code: ' & @error & @CRLF)
    Next

P.S. I believe there have been past discussions where InetRead was failing on attempts to connect to Github due to security protocols.

[PaulS]

@Danp2  Thanks for the quick reply.   Your comment about InetRead failing due to security protocols got me thinking, so I checked our web content filter.  Guess what...both github.com and msedgedriver.azureedge.net were being blocked for the standard user, and not for the admin user.  THANK YOU!!!

Look here:

and for other browsers it is similiar.

Hi Dan,
thanks again for your work!
Your function _WD_UpdateDriver() checks and installs current webdriver if necessary. In my program I want to show the existing and the new version before the update. 
I have so far only the workaround that I modify the function in wd-helper, so put 2 global variables, which I can then use in my program. However, my modification is gone with each update from you. Is there a way to get the values of $sDriverCurrent and $sDriverLatest somehow also "outside" as global just as information? 

 

Edited October 10, 2022 by HJL

[HJL]

@mLipok Some time ago you wrote about "document.readyState". I don't get how I can use this in connection with Dan's UDF / AutoIt. 

[Danp2]

@HJL_WD_LoadWait is already using this property. The default is to wait until the web page is fully loaded, but this can be modified using the $iState parameter (recent addition by @mLipok)

Expand  

_WD_GetWebDriverVersion can be used to obtain the $sDriverCurrent. There currently isn't a way for you to get $sDriverLatest unless you download the file into a temporary location and then use the above function on it.

; Remarks .......: When $bForce = Null, then the function will check for an updated webdriver without actually performing the update.
;                  In this scenario, the return value indicates if an update is available.

In theory, we could change the functionality of _WD_UpdateDriver so that it returns an array containing these values when $bForce = Null.

hm...it can be handy in some way in one of my case.

I have a project where browser is only on local network with strongly protected area.
I need to get browser version, store it in INI then update driver on different computer with internet access.

So I need to check browser version, store them, and download related driver later.

This is one of my case on my TODO list.

@Danp2 can we combine this two fatures together ?

 

 

[HJL]

That's output of my program, but works in the moment only with the workaround of 2 global variables.

Edited October 10, 2022 by HJL

[Danp2]

@mLipokI don't understand what you mean. Don't you already have what you need with _WD_GetBrowserVersion?

@HJLLet me know if my proposal above will work for you.

Hi @Danp2

I didnt know any Programing language before, but after 1 week finding and copy from this forum, Now I can code by myself a simple script to let my PC automatically grab data from some url and save them.

But all of these urls are simple, so I easily copy whole of the content then edit the strings step by step

And now, I want to grab the data in a not simple website (with me), and I found this topic.

Could you help me how to get the number of shipments in this URL: https://importkey.com/search/TRUONG THANH INCORPORATED COMPANY with the Xpath "//*[@id="mat-tab-label-3-0"]/div/span/app-number-viewerapp"

Thanks.

You don't need an array in this case. However, 

Local $sElement = _WD_WaitElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, '//*[@id="mat-tab-label-0-0"]/div/span/app-number-viewerapp', 100, 5000)
Local $sText = _WD_ElementAction($sSession, $sElement, 'property', 'innerText')

MsgBox(0, "Total", $sText)
