Problems With Frames And Ie.au3


Recommended Posts

I tried using {TAB} to get to the frame with the form but it does not seem to work...

If I navigate directly to the page with the form on the script works perfectly, however the submit button does not work when opened directly.

There must be some way to define what frame i want it to look at!!!

Any tips or suggestions would be deeply appreciated!

Heres the code:

#include <IE.au3>

$o_IE = _IECreate ()
_IENavigate ($o_IE, "http://interflora.nonstop.dk")
$o_SearchForm = _IEFormGetObjByName ($o_IE, "LoginForm")
$o_Username = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($o_SearchForm, "username")
$o_Password = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($o_SearchForm, "password")
_IEFormElementSetValue ($o_Username, "testuser")
_IEFormElementSetValue ($o_Password, "testpass")
_IEFormSubmit ($o_SearchForm)

(I'm using the beta version)

You must get a reference to the particular frame first...

$o_IE = _IECreate ( "http://interflora.nonstop.dk")
$oFrame = _IEFrameGetObjByName($o_IE, "WinMain")

Then use $oFrame instead of $o_IE in the remaining code... make sense?

Doesn't work needs to be ripped out of the troubleshooting lexicon. It means that what you tried did not produce the results you expected. It begs the questions 1) what did you try?, 2) what did you expect? and 3) what happened instead?

Dunno if I should start a new topic with this problem but I will try post here again :(

Alright so I got the form functions to work thanks toDaleHohn :)

I would then like to go trough the source and find 3 constant spanids and then insert the value of the spanids into 3 variables (one variable for each spanid just to be clear!).

Maybe the _IEBodyReadHTML function would be the way to go unless there is a better way?

BTW: Is it possible to use _IEClickLinkByText with a partial text of a link (if im sure its always a unique number which is part of a link)...?

This should get what you want:

$aIds = _ArrayCreate(0)
; get a collection object for all span tags
$oSpans = _IETagNameGetCollection ($oIE, "SPAN")
; get the id value for each span tag
For $oSpan In $oSpans
    $sId = $oSpan.id
    If Not $sId = "" Then
        _ArrayAdd($aIds, $sId)
    EndIf   
Next
; set the first element (0) to equal the number of ids found
$aIds[0] = UBound($aIds) - 1
; display the array
_ArrayDisplay($aIds, "Your ID's")

Yes

@big_daddy:

Thanks! :)

Im trying to understand your code (sorry, but im very new to AutoIT).

I would need to get like $fleur set from the spanid="fleur"

I'm not real sure where your getting the "spanid" from, as far as I know it is <span id="something"

If that is what you are refering to then you could use something like this:

$aIds = _ArrayCreate(0)

; get a collection object for all span tags
$oSpans = _IETagNameGetCollection ($oIE, "SPAN")

; get the id value for each span tag
For $oSpan In $oSpans
    $sId = $oSpan.id
    If Not $sId = "" Then
        _ArrayAdd($aIds, $sId)
    EndIf   
Next

; set the first element (0) to equal the number of ids found
$aIds[0] = UBound($aIds) - 1

; display the array
_ArrayDisplay($aIds, "Your ID's")

; assign each span id to a variable
For $i = 1 To UBound($aIds) - 1
    If Not IsDeclared($aIds[$i]) Then
        Assign($aIds[$i], $i)
    EndIf
Next

; use eval to avoid warning messages
MsgBox(0, "", Eval("fleur"))

Thank you for taking time to help me :)

I'm getting an error on line 18:

$aIds = _ArrayCreate(0)

Error: Unknown function name.

Big_daddy - I cannot tell u how much I appreciate you taking time to help me here.

Just incase someone else decises to look at this they will also need to change

$oSpans = _IETagNameGetCollection ($oIE, "SPAN")
into
$oSpans = _IETagNameGetCollection ($o_IE, "SPAN")

However currently it only returns [0] = 0

EDIT:

AHA!

Actually it should obviously be

$oSpans = _IETagNameGetCollection ($oFrame, "SPAN")

Otherwise it wont look at the right frame... :)

No problem, glad I could help.

into
$oSpans = _IETagNameGetCollection ($o_IE, "SPAN")
Variables with an underscore are used for UDFs, I would suggest that you remove the underscores from your script.

However currently it only returns [0] = 0

If it is returning "0", then it didn't find any specified id values.

Problem with the missing ids were it did not look at the frame :)

Seems last problem remaining is how to fetch a id from the array into a variable then.

I tried like this:

MsgBox(0, "Test", $alds[50])
but it fails with variable used without first being declared...

Hmm!! Im not sure I know what the problem is but this works (nearly):

MsgBox(0, "Test", $aIds[50])

However it only returns the name of id50... i wanted it to return the value of id 50...

I gave an example here of how to assign a variable using the value of each id. If thats not what you are looking to do, please explain with more detail as to what you are wanting.

@Valuter: I wonder if you could add this to AuotIt 1 2 3? Make it easier to learn. I'm just starting to use it, and getting a lottle lost in all the commands. I should have it down soon, but a lesson like the one you made would rock! Just putting a bug in your ear to think about..... :)

Alright I got this running now as I wanted it to :)

$aIds = _ArrayCreate(0)
; get a collection object for all span tags
$oSpans = _IETagNameGetCollection ($oFrame, "SPAN")
; get the id value for each span tag
For $oSpan In $oSpans
    $sId = $oSpan.innerHTML
    If Not $sId = "" Then
        _ArrayAdd($aIds, $sId)
    EndIf   
Next
; set the first element (0) to equal the number of ids found
$aIds[0] = UBound($aIds) - 1

$mail = $aIds[58]
$efleur = $aIds[60]
$ip = $aIds[62]

MsgBox(0, "Test", $ip)

@volleyman - I dont believe Valuter is active in this thread? :(

@big_daddy - Again thank you for taking your time to deal with my mindless questions :D
