Portability?


Recommended Posts

Okay, so I've got a script written to do certain functions on a webpage...this script works perfectly on my home machine, but when I take it to work it just closes my browser window out. Has anybody experienced the same problem when taking a script from machine to machine and does anybody know of a way to stop this?

As a side note, the brower closes so fast after starting the script that I can't see what's being clicked on the screen to try and troubleshoot it.

My guess is that you have different versions of IE and do not do proper error checking on your com objects. But that is just a wild, but qualified :think: , guess.

are you using mousemove etc. If so it will most likely be the screen resolution.

I use mouseclicks for pretty much everything, I have a seperate .ini file which houses the pixel locations for the script to find. I use the window spy program to grab the pixels. When I moved to a new computer I set these all up again yet I get the error where IE closes. I don't think posting the code would be relevant since it works fine at home, besides, posting it would make for one huge post.

You shouldn't use mouse clicks, they can be very unreliable. Look at DaleHohms IE.au3 UDF library in Scripts & Scraps

Write au3 code right at the console :D_FileWriteToLineWrite to a specific line in a file.My UDF Libraries: MySQL UDF Library version 1.6 MySQL Database UDF's for AutoItI have stopped updating the MySQL thread above, all future updates will be on my SVN.

Can you link me to a specific post in Scripts & Scraps? I guess I'm being retarded, because I can't find it.

Well, it turns out that the ToolTip I was using at location 0,0 was forcing the browser closed when I took it to another computer. I just moved the tool tip away from the upper-left corner and the problem is solved. Makes me feel stupid for not checking that first after days of scratching my head. I'm also wondering why it was closing the browser at work, but not at home....*shrugs* Anyway, problem solved. :think:

Okay, back to the drawing board....again...I tried it on yet another machine and the original problem still exists. Something in my script is sending the mouse to pixel location 0,0 and I can't figure out why. I'll strip down the code a bit and post it here later when I get home.
