Input Button Without Form?

[CheesyPuffs144]

Is it possible for an input button to be outside of a form? Using the little snippet at

http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.ph...indpost&p=95139

I changed the anchor links section to search for input tags (I need to click a button), but when I found the button I wanted, (I believe that) it is not inside a form. The only thing I can tell is that they're nestled in SPAN elements. AFAIK, I can't view the source (frames leading to php which only display if called from the frame, quite clever/annoying).

Is there a way I can grab the INPUT object from the collection returned from _IETagNameGetCollection() ? I know the indexes for them from the collection, just not how to grab them...

Yes, _IETagNameGetCollection($oIE, "input") should work.

Yes, _IETagNameGetCollection($oIE, "input") should work.

I have that, but how do I then grab the specific (namely the 2nd and 3rd) input objects from that collection? I can't use _IEFormElementGetObjByIndex() because its not part of any form.

Ah... this will get a reference to the third item in the collection:

$oInputs = _IETagNameGetCollection($oIE, "input")
$oInput = $oInputs.item(2)

$oIE = _IECreate()

...

$o_frame = _IEFrameGetObjByName($oIE, "FrameName")

...

$o_input = _IETagNameGetCollection($o_frame, "input")
$o_button = $o_input.item(1)

I get this error.

$o_button = $o_input.item(1)
$o_button = ^ERROR

Error: Error in exp[b][/b]ression.

Maybe I'm having a huge brainfart, but I don't see what's wrong...

Doh! Sorry, I make this mistake every time. I'm going to make this smarter in the next release.

_IETagNameGetCollection takes a document object so use

$o_input = _IETagNameGetCollection($o_frame.document, "input")

Thank you very much!

Now, is there any way to click the button? I tried

$o_button.Click
$o_button.fireEvent("onchange")
$o_button.fireEvent("onclick")
$o_button.fireEvent("onmouseup")

I think I'm going about this the wrong way...

$o_button.Click

will click the button as though it was done with the mouse

there must be something else going on... you'll need to take a closer look at the source code or post it here and I'll take a look

I'll PM you then.

I'll PM you then.

With the HTML you sent me I was able to get the following to work:

$oInputs = _IETagNameGetCollection($oFrame.document, "input")
For $oInput in $oInputs
    If String($oInput.value) = "Cast Spell" Then 
        $oInput.click
        ExitLoop
    EndIf
Next
