_IE Functions can't seem to find form object


Recommended Posts

I have a web page that has 3 forms and I'm trying to press a "GO" button that appears to be an image. I've posted the html source below. I'm able to see the 3 forms and the "select" element in the form I'm interested in. I've tried every _IE "collection" function but can't seem to find any way to access that "GO" button reliably.

<table>
<tr><td style="vertical-align:bottom"><form name="PC_7_0_1BS_YourRole" method="post" action="/wps/myportal/!ut/p/kcxml/04_Sj9SPykssy0xPLMnMz0vM0Y_QjzKLN4i3dAHJgFjGpvqRqCKOcIEgfW99X4_83FT9AP2C3NCIckdHRQCpLJzA/delta/base64xml/L0lDU0lKQ1RPN29na21DU1Evb0tvUUFBSVFnakZJQUFRaENFSVFqR0VKemdBIS80SkZpQ28wZWgxaWNvblFWR2hkLXNJZDJFQSEh

There's nothing wrong with that approach, but the function designed for that control is _IEFormImageClick

Free Internet Tools: DebugBar, AutoIt IE Builder, HTTP UDF, MODIV2, IE Developer Toolbar, IEDocMon, Fiddler, HTML Validator, WGet, curl

MSDN docs: InternetExplorer Object, Document Object, Overviews and Tutorials, DHTML Objects, DHTML Events, WinHttpRequest, XmlHttpRequest, Cross-Frame Scripting, Office object model

Automate input type=file (Related)

Alternative to _IECreateEmbedded? better: _IECreatePseudoEmbedded  Better Better?

IE.au3 issues with Vista - Workarounds

SciTe Debug mode - it's magic: #AutoIt3Wrapper_run_debug_mode=Y

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?

Reproducer: a small (the smallest?) piece of stand-alone code that demonstrates your trouble
