IE function $o_object.HWND () problem

I am using the IE user defined functions, I encounted a problem:

When calling __IEAttach(), it will call _IEPropertyGet() to get window handle, then an error popus up, saying $o_object.HWND () failed in _IEPropertyGet function.

There are some apps running on the box, using the IE control/container, so they look like an IE, but failing the function call $o_object.HWND () .

How do I check if the object support HWND () (i.e. $o_object.HWND () works)?

@zzen11 - I had this same problem with the IE Tab Extension for Firefox. Dale was looking into this but I'm not sure where he got with it.

I'll have a fix for it ready for a new release soon. I can reproduce it and have found it happens with other IE "emulators" as well. This is because they masquerade as IE browser windows, yet do not expose the same properties.

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?

This sounds great. Before the new release, I am wondering if I have anyway just to skip that particular object and move on (without pop up a autoit fatal error dialog).

Thanks!

Haven't tested, but I believe you should be able to add _IEErrorHandlerRegister() before the _IEAttach and it will become non-fatal.

Tried, still has fatal error at the line:

Return HWnd($o_object.HWND ()) in the function _IEPropertyGet()

Error message says:

Return HWnd($o_object.HWND())

Return ^ Error

Error: The requested action with this object has failed.

Hope this helps for developing a fix.

Thanks and sorry for the trouble. It will be temporary.
