Forum auto-poster


Recommended Posts

I made a "gaiaonline.com" bot that would post to a specific topic using "IE.au3", but it could only handle one bot due to the fact that it requires that I have to enabled cookies to submit a reply. Then, I went searching this morning for posting with "winhttp.winhttprequest.5.1" and it seems like a great solution, but I don't know how I would go about this. Any help?

First it logs in with $Username and $Password. Then it navigates to the topic supplied by $Thread[2] & $Thread[3], fills the text area with $Message and submits the message by clicking the submit button. It can be minimized due to using IE.au3 and you can resume normal activities, you just can't run more than 1 bot at once because it requires cookies are enabled as far as I know.

Uhm... Help please? :D

I don't understand your trouble. IE.au3 will work with cookies just as you would interactively. Persistent cookies affect all IE instances, session cookies affect all instances inthe same process tree.

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?

Reproducer: a small (the smallest?) piece of stand-alone code that demonstrates your trouble

At the moment I can only run one bot, but I want to be able to run more. All I can do right now is enable cookies so I am always logged in, but the system also can run on a session ID, set by putting &sid=# after it. But, all I can do with the session method is browse, I can't actually submit any posts. If you could figure out a way to run on the session method I would be very grateful. :D

I'm sorry, I don't understand your problem or your terminology.

Are you trying to do something that IE will not allow you to do interactively?

This site uses cookies to keep me logged in. I need to be logged in to post. How can I stay logged in without every single IE window becoming logged in to one user?
