orange Posted July 11, 2006 Posted July 11, 2006 I am writing a program for a collegue, and basically I need to automate submission of a PHP form on a website that I do not moderate. So, is there an easy way to automate PHP form submission? I have goofed around with IE.au3 but I can't really get the _IEformoption() function to work. Also, can this be done in the background?
evilertoaster Posted July 11, 2006 Posted July 11, 2006 This should be possible with Ie.au3 as far as i know. I would try posting what you have in the ie.au3 thread.

ivan Posted July 12, 2006 Posted July 12, 2006 To interact with form elements, you'll need the form collection object variable in the document. Taken straight out of the help file: #include <IE.au3> _IEFormGetCollection ( ByRef $o_object [, $i_index = -1] ) should return the form collection, you then might want to start checking shich items need filling and to submit, use _IEFormSubmit ( ByRef $o_object [, $f_wait = 1] ) IVAN Think out of the boxGrabber: Yet another WinInfo tool_CSVLib (still alpha)Dynamic html in au3
