PsaltyDS Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 Topic says it all....is it possible? Need it to check unread email in bold and open it via IE.au3. Thanks.BlackstarEven in the AutoIT internal commands, I only see ways to set text attributes, not read them. You can read the text from a control, but I don't see how to get format/attributes. I would also like to know if it can be done with AutoIT GUI's or external windows. Valuater's AutoIt 1-2-3, Class...

Bert Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 The only way it might be possible that I know of is use a string read on the sorce code, and see if the <B> is being used. I would think it would be very difficult, if not impossible. It is way beyond my skills to even attempt.

flyingboz Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 Topic says it all....is it possible? Need it to check unread email in bold and open it via IE.au3. Thanks.BlackstarTopic says very little of use, actually. If you're hitting a public URL, provide it. Can you see HTML source, or are you running some kind of OWA or JRE or Citrix environment?What have you done, if anything, to see what other elements may indicate "new" or "unread" links?The issue of identifying bold links in an HTML page is simply a matter of parsing the source for said links; your task will likely be made simpler by the fact that most of these pages use some kind of table to order email information. Reading the help file before you post... Not only will it make you look smarter, it will make you smarter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaleHohm Posted July 6, 2006 Share Posted July 6, 2006 Topic says it all....is it possible? Need it to check unread email in bold and open it via IE.au3. Thanks.BlackstarThere are several way of obtaining bold text in HTML. These include the <b> tag, the <font> tag and CSS (you'd see this as a class= attribute on a tag that referenced a previously defined CSS style).All of these can be parsed and discovered in the DOM. The approach you take depends on the particular page and how it is accomplished.

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?

We can disconitue this topic....Dawn Of The Thread! The Zombie Topic That Wouldn't Die! Just out of curiosity, what about outside of HTML and web browsers? Can you read the attributes of a control in the same manner you can read the text/data from it? Something amounting to GuiCtrlGetFont() or GuiCtrlReadStyle()... Valuater's AutoIt 1-2-3, Class...
