Hi all,

Im new to AutoIT so pls forgive my 'misuse' of terms.

Im trying to read an html file [more specifically a .aspx file thats automatically updated every 12 seconds] from an intranet site into my script and then strip off the html protocol header pieces, and send the result to a tray tip. So in other words display an active web page as a traytip refreshing every 12 seconds.

Ive successfully done the traytip and stripping of html headers, but the most simple bit to me I cant get working.

When i use InetGet() or _InetGetSource() the read file does not include the actual text diplayed on the website ie. looks something like this <html> </html> with nothing between the html pieces. However if i do it manually, ie load the web page and click saveas and save it then i have what i need <html>SCREENTEXT</html> with screentext included.

Any idea what could be causing this?

My code snippet is as follows:

InetGet("http://intranetwr/FieldServices/WMC/OutageDisplay/outagedisplay.aspx", "d:\outage\new.htm",1,0)
$newfile = FileRead("d:\outage\new.htm")

you need to be more specific. Post your code and the web-page, downloaded with IE and with InetGet(). Also, tell us if the following script works for you.

InetGet("http://www.google.com", "c:\temp\new.htm",1,0)
$newfile = FileRead("c:\temp\new.htm")
MsgBox(0,"",$newfile)

Cheers

Kurt

the google download scipt does partially work. It saves the file but not with the jpg of gif files. Dont know if that helps any.

The outagedisplay.aspx file seems to be an active file refreshing itself from the web server automatically every 12 seconds. The .aspx file cycles a default page with my companies logo[gif] and company text [jpg] and some other basic text display pages. Now I want to download these text pages with the inetget instruction. However, the inetget instruction seems to download the default page always [even when at the time the inetget instruction runs a text page is being displayed from the web server] without the jpg and gif files.

However when manually done with save as in IE, I save the file as an web page,HTML only i get the text display in the saved file [when the.aspx is showing the text display]

Below is the html using the Inetget instruction[only downloading the default page]:

it's not supposed to download the images!

Below is the html using the Inetget instruction[only downloading the default page]:

there is definetely a difference, but as you are requesting an ASP page, I'm pretty sure the difference is O.K. as the major difference is the VIEWSTATE, which is kind of a session id. ASP applications use VIEWSTATE to store session state for a session. So, if you access the page twice, the VIEWSTATE will be different.

The second difference is the "code" for "Label1". I'm not sure why there is a difference, but I suspect, you did something in your browser (klick a link, or authenticate) before you saved the page. Is that correct?

Anyway, I would recommend to use the _IExxx functions instead of InetGet(). See help file and search the forum.

Cheers

Kurt
