Get a Form with out name...

[PantZ4]

I'm trying to make a auto login for a forum but it seems that the form has no name. How can I retive the form name (or object name?) from it?

Thank you

I take your trying to login into http://www.arto.dk/ ? If so use the form id of 0

document.all.mainFrame.all.topFrame.forms.item(0).brugernavn <---- Name textbox referance

You may have some trouble with the frames also

That should push you in right direction

[DaleHohm]

Using IE.au3, see _IEFormGetCollection with a 0-based index. If there are frames, see _IEFrameGetObjByName.

Could you give a example. Seems no matter what I do, gives me the "IE.au3 Warning from function _IEFormGetCollection, $_IEStatus_NoMatch" error.

#include <IE.au3>
$oIE = _IECreate ("http://www.arto.dk")
$oForm = _IEFormGetCollection ($oIE, 0)
$oQuery = _IEFormElementGetCollection ($oForm, 1)
_IEFormElementSetValue ($oQuery, "test")

I tried this one too. Same error.

document.all.mainFrame.all.topFrame.forms.item(0).brugernavn

^ What means that? And where to put it?

Sorry but I'm a kind of slow :">

Thank you

This site is just nuts with frames. This should get you closer, but the $Frame2 includes at least 10 iFrames... you'll need to dig to figure out what what you want is hidden.

#include <IE.au3>
$oIE = _IECreate ("http://www.arto.dk", 1)
$oFrame = _IEFrameGetObjByName($oIE, "mainframe")
$oFrame2 = _IEFrameGetObjByName($oFrame, "hovedside")

EDIT: After I have look at _IEFrameGetObjByName in the help file and your post again, I have a question; does _IEFrameGetObjByName return a array?

Edited March 15, 2007 by Mr. Zero

[DaleHohm]

$oForm = _IEFrameGetObjByName($oIE,"hovedside")

This returns a Frame, not a form. You need to look for the form inside the frame, the formelement inside a form.

Thanks.

Now that I have the frame, I need the form.

This gives me a error, I can't see why...

#include <IE.au3>
$sUsername = "Username"
$sPassword = "Password"
$sUrl = "http://www.arto.dk"
$oIE = _IECreate ($sUrl,0,1,1)
$oFrame = _IEFrameGetObjByName($oIE, "mainframe")
$oFrame2 = _IEFrameGetObjByName($oFrame, "hovedside")
$oForm = _IEFormElementGetCollection($oFrame2, 1)
$oUsername = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($oForm, "brugernavn")
$oPassword = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($oForm, "kodeord")
_IEFormElementSetValue ($oUsername, $sUsername)
_IEFormElementSetValue ($oPassword, $sPassword)

It is _IEFormElementGetCollection I shall use for getting the form?

[DaleHohm]

Nope _IEFormGetCollection - FormElements live inside forms.

Hmm...

#include <IE.au3>
$sUsername = "Username"
$sPassword = "Password"
$sUrl = "http://www.arto.dk"
$oIE = _IECreate ($sUrl,0,1,1)
$oFrame = _IEFrameGetObjByName($oIE, "mainframe")
$oFrame2 = _IEFrameGetObjByName($oFrame, "hovedside")
$oForm = _IEFormGetCollection($oFrame2, 1)
$oUsername = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($oForm, "brugernavn")
$oPassword = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($oForm, "kodeord")
_IEFormElementSetValue ($oUsername, $sUsername)
_IEFormElementSetValue ($oPassword, $sPassword)

Error: "IE.au3 Warning from function _IEFormGetCollection, $_IEStatus_NoMatch"

No Match?

[DaleHohm]

I looked at the source of hovedside and there are NO forms included... (you can ConsoleWrite(_IEBodyReadHTML($oFrame2))

THere are 10+ frames embedded there however so your work of drilling into frames to find what you need is probably not node.

Another possibility is that some sites play games with using iFrames instead of form elements and there are other creative techniques as well. Unfortunately you'll just have to dig... I don't have time to take it any further - perhaps someone else will be willing to start digging through the frames with you.

Thank you very much Dale .

I think I have misunderstanded the _IEFormGetCollection function. What does it return? Array?

Yes, there is alot of frames on the site and no names on them .

And iFrame? Is that a array slot from _IEFormGetCollection?

If there is +10 frames how do I get one of them? What is the command/function?w

Current Code:

#include <IE.au3>
$sUsername = "Username"
$sPassword = "Password"
$sUrl = "http://www.arto.dk"
$oIE = _IECreate ($sUrl,0,1,1)
$oFrame = _IEFrameGetObjByName($oIE, "mainframe")
$oFrame2 = _IEFrameGetObjByName($oFrame, "hovedside")
$oForm = _IEFormGetCollection($oFrame2, 1)
$oUsername = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($oForm, "brugernavn")
$oPassword = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($oForm, "kodeord")
_IEFormElementSetValue ($oUsername, $sUsername)
_IEFormElementSetValue ($oPassword, $sPassword)

Anyone there can explain furter and how to?

Thank you

A collectio is similar to an Array in some ways, but it is an object-oriented concept. A collection has members and properties and the members have their own properties and methods... sorry if this is confusing, but once you understand OO the same concepts are used everywhere.

_IExxxxGetCollection allows you to either get a collection that you can loop through with For...In...Next or you can get a specific member from it by using the index parameter (note that the index starts with 0). You can see haw many members are in the collection by examining @extended after calling _IExxxxGetCollection (or by using the .length property of the collection).

So, both Frames and iFrames are accessed through _IEFrameGetCollection -- you'll probably want to use the index since they have no names.

note however that you cannot use For...In...Next with the Frame collection -- don't know why, but there is an example of how to loop in the helpfile.
