Polyphem Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 (edited) Hm, not sure about this one, as i never used it... but by looking at it with _IEFormElementGetValue you get exactlly what you wanted, the value of the option, in this case 658 or 174. By looking at the source of the include IE.au3 i could not find another solution already implemented (but surly Im wrong ). A work-around which might work (purly speculation) might be, to copy the _IEFormElementGetValue() function and edit that to capture the inner text of the element... maybe this works, insert it at the bottom of your script: Func _IEFormElementGetText(ByRef $o_object) If Not IsObj($o_object) Then __IEErrorNotify("Error", "_IEFormElementGetValue", "$_IEStatus_InvalidDataType") SetError($_IEStatus_InvalidDataType, 1) Return 0 EndIf ; If Not __IEIsObjType($o_object, "forminputelement") Then __IEErrorNotify("Error", "_IEFormElementGetValue", "$_IEStatus_InvalidObjectType") SetError($_IEStatus_InvalidObjectType, 1) Return 0 EndIf ; SetError($_IEStatus_Success) Return $o_object.innerText;<=== changed to innerText EndFunc and replace this line in your code MsgBox (0,"XYZ", _IEFormElementGetValue($oText)) with this MsgBox (0,"XYZ", _IEFormElementGetText($oText)) maybe, just maybe ... or i'm completly on the wrong track ...

Lokeshverma Posted November 23, 2006 Author Share Posted November 23, 2006 (edited) Actually it worked But not the way I wanted.... it gave me all the inner texts of the drop down menu written 1 after another. I have to sort them,but its not easy. Edited November 23, 2006 by Lokeshverma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polyphem Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Nice ... Yeah, i see, the function seems to refer to the <form> element and not the <option> element ... guess you'll have to combine the _IEFormElementGetText with a _IEFormElementGetValue function call. Extract _IEFormElementGetValue and _IEFormElementGetText. Split the resulting _IEFormElementGetText string with the value retrieved from _IEFormElementGetValue, something like that ...
