raifwrite Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 I have been attempting to create a script that will check or uncheck all checkbox elements in all forms contained on any given web page. I am having trouble with the _IE commands becuase it seems that at least one of the comands used to accomplish this task must have a defined reference which I will not have as I want it to work on any random web page. I know it's probably not that hard but I am stuck. Any help would be appreciated.Thanks,D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaleHohm Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 _IEFormElementCheckBoxSelect is designed to do this, but as you point out it can be tedious for arbitrary pages. A brute force method in this case can be pretty simple #include <IE.au3> $oIE = _IEAttach(your-page) $oInputs = _IETagNameGetCollection($oIE, "input") For $oInput in $oInputs If $oInput.type = "checkbox" Then $oInput.checked = True Next Dale 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?

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?
