_ienaviagte Error

[anyday]

Here is my code:

#include <ie.au3>

$oIE = _IECreate()

_IENavigate($oIE, "website")

$o_form = _IEFormGetObjByName($oIE, "form")

$o_login = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($o_form, "username")

$o_password = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($o_form, "password")

_IEFormElementSetValue($o_login, "username")

_IEFormElementSetValue($o_password, "pass")

_IEFormSubmit($o_form)

_IELoadWait($oIE)

_IENavigate($oIE, "newwebsite")

Exit

the newwebsite does point to a url.

i dont get any errors. the page just never loads, it never attempts to load the "newwebsite" url?

See what you get with this. Don't forget to change the websites back.

#include <ie.au3>

$oIE = _IECreate()
_IENavigate($oIE, "website")

$o_form = _IEFormGetObjByName($oIE, "form")
$o_login = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($o_form, "username")
$o_password = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($o_form, "password")

_IEFormElementSetValue($o_login, "username")
_IEFormElementSetValue($o_password, "pass")
_IEFormSubmit($o_form)
;_IELoadWait($oIE)
MsgBox(0, "", "Click OK when the first page is finished loading.")
_IENavigate($oIE, "newwebsite")

Sleep ( 3000 )

Exit

I added the sleep command and it works now, i dunno what was wrong

This is really a puzzlement. This issue used to almost never occur and I could never reproduce it. Recently is is being reported over and over. There is test code posted in one of the last few replies of the IE.au3 thread that is designed to fix this and I would appreciate if you would test and report the results (without the Sleep command).

If it works for you I'll get a new version out with the modified code as quickly as I can.

thanks,

Dale

Sure... it's here -- and there's been enough traffic there recently that it isn't one of the last posts anymore

dale,

i updated the ie.au3 with the code you linked to...

but the script i have still only works with the wait command in there.

Just thought i would report back to you and let you know.

Thanks,

[anyday]

well here my script so far, could you tell me what im doing wrong?

#include <ie.au3>

$oIE = _IECreate()

_IENavigate($oIE, "website here")

$o_form = _IEFormGetObjByName($oIE, "form")

$o_login = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($o_form, "username")

$o_password = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($o_form, "password")

_IEFormElementSetValue($o_login, "username")

_IEFormElementSetValue($o_password, "pass")

_IEFormSubmit($o_form)

_IELoadWait($oIE)

Sleep (3000)

_IENavigate($oIE, "newwebsitehere")

_IELoadWait($oIE)

$o_form2 = _IEFormGetObjByName($oIE, "SearchForm")

$o_days = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($o_form2, "history")

$oButton = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($o_form2, "Submit")

_IEFormElementSetValue ($o_days, "today-5")

$oButton.focus()

Send("{Enter}")

_IELoadWait($oIE)

Exit

Everything works till it gets to the $oButton.focus()

Then i get this error

$oButton.focus()

$oButton^ERROR

Error: Variable must be of type "Object".

Thanks for any help.

So now you have a problem with the $o_button object - it isn't one.

You need to check the return value of the _IExxx calls to see where to focus your efforts.

Study your Submit button.
