Need help with IE Form Element

[MarioX]

I'm unable to fill the following form at:

http://www.meteonetwork.it/index.php?sezione=riservata

#include <IE.au3>
$oIE = _IECreate("http://www.meteonetwork.it/index.php?sezione=riservata")

; get pointers to the login form and username and password fields
$o_form = _IEFormGetObjByName($oIE, "1")
$o_login = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($o_form, "username")
$o_password = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($o_form, "password")

; Set field values and submit the form
_IEFormElementSetValue($o_login, "myusernamehere")
_IEFormElementSetValue($o_password, "mypasswordhere")

;~ Sleep(2000)

_IEFormSubmit($o_form)



Exit

I believe the problem is because the form has no name, lot's of forum serch but I'm unable to made the script work...

Any help really appreciated, thanks!

The form you are using doesn't have a name or an ID, look at _IEFormGetCollection().

Thanks for your help, I read the _IEFormGetCollection() description, but I'm too dumb to adapt the sample code to suit my need.

Here my second not working attempt

#include <IE.au3>
    $USERNAME = 'myusername'
    $PASSWORD = 'mypassword'
    $oIE = _IECreate ("http://www.meteonetwork.it/index.php?sezione=riservata",0,1,1)
    $oForm = _IEFormGetCollection ($oIE, 0)
    $oLogin = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oForm, "username")
    $oPass = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oForm,"password")
    _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oLogin,"username")
    _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oPass,"password")
    _IEFormElementSetValue($oLogin,$USERNAME)
    _IEFormElementSetValue($oPass,$PASSWORD)
    _IEFormSubmit($oForm)

Any further help greatly appreciated, thanks again!

A little help

;<input type="password" name="password" size="20" maxlength="50">

;<input type="text" name="username" size="20" maxlength="50">

Login buton:

;<input type="submit" name="login" value="Login">

i think you need

#include <IE.au3>

;<input type="password" name="password" size="20" maxlength="50">

;<input type="text" name="username" size="20" maxlength="50">

;<input type="submit" name="login" value="Login">

$oIE = _IECreate ("http://www.meteonetwork.it/index.php?sezione=riservata")

$oForm = _IEFormGetObjByName ($oIE, "username")

$o2Form = _IEFormGetObjByName ($oIE, "password")

$oQuery = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($oForm, "login")

_IEFormElementSetValue ($oForm, "user")

_IEFormElementSetValue ($o2Form, "pass")

_IEFormSubmit ($oForm)

_IEFormSubmit ($o2Form)

but maybe there is no warning - wrong pass

There is a problem whith _IEFormSubmit, I get the following error

_IEFormSubmit($oForm)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^

C:\form1.au3(11,25) : ERROR: $oForm: undeclared global variable.

_IEFormSubmit($oForm)

That's because I never did that, I just commented it out in my code... do you see a $oForm variable other than _IEFormSubmit? A suggestion would be _IELinkClickByText() or _IEAction()

[MarioX]

I added the following code:

$oSubmit = _IEGetObjByName ($oIE, "login")
    _IEAction ($oSubmit, "click")
    _IELoadWait ($oIE)

The complete working code is:

#include <IE.au3>
    
    $USERNAME = 'myusername'
    $PASSWORD = 'mypassword'
    $oForm = 'login'
    $oIE = _IECreate ("http://www.meteonetwork.it/index.php?sezione=riservata")
    $oPass = _IEGetObjByName($oIE, 'password')
    $oLogin = _IEGetObjByName($oIE, 'username')
    $oSubmit = _IEGetObjByName ($oIE, "login")
    _IEFormElementSetValue($oLogin,$USERNAME)
    _IEFormElementSetValue($oPass,$PASSWORD)      
    _IEAction ($oSubmit, "click")
    _IELoadWait ($oIE)

Thanks all for help me!

Hey, any ideas how to change the setup when the page is sending a hidden name for the field? Like this:

<td><input class="submit" type="submit" value="Log In" /></td>

</tr>

</table>

</div>

<input type="hidden" name="action" value="log_in" />

The name is not hidden the actual element is. I'm not sure what you mean by "change the setup".

Hey BigDaddy! Thanks for the reply. Sorry, I didn't get the element I should be using on your reply.

Just as an example: http://thecrosscog.com/churchpics/admin/ This is one of my websites and I am not trying to plug it but for example if you look at the source code you will see:

<form action="plog-upload.php" method="post">

<div align="center">

<table width="380">

<tr>

</tr>

<tr>

<td><label for="username"><b>Username:</b></label></td>

<td><input type="text" name="username" id="username" /></td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td><label for="password"><b>Password:</b></label></td>

<td><input type="password" name="password" id="password" /></td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td>&nbsp;</td>

<td><input class="submit" type="submit" value="Log In" /></td>

</tr>

</table>

</div>

<input type="hidden" name="action" value="log_in" />

</form>

inside my form the name for the submit element has been hidden to prevent bots from hitting it so easily. Can I use a different element here to have this login work on it. I can't make MarioX's Code work when this method is used. How can I make MarioX's Code log into this for me?

Thank You..

[big_daddy]

This works for me...

#include <IE.au3>

$sURL = "http://thecrosscog.com/churchpics/admin/"
$sUsername = "test"
$sPassword = "test"

$oIE = _IECreate($sURL)
$oForm = _IEFormGetCollection($oIE, 0)
$oUsername = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oForm, "username")
$oPassword = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oForm, "password")

_IEFormElementSetValue($oUsername, $sUsername)
_IEFormElementSetValue($oPassword, $sPassword)
_IEFormSubmit($oForm)

Cool Big_daddy! That works for me. I couldn't get over that obstacle. Haha, looked at your pic.. Not at all what I expected.. LOL We have a Big Daddy's BarBQ here in Tulsa and He is what comes to mind with the name.. A rather large older gent.

Thanks for your help...
