Okay, I'm making a function to post in a Neopets.com forum...I read a topic about this, but the last post was back in 2005. I tried what was said in that topic, and I get an error.

The Error I get

$Mb = $IE.document.frames.item("message_form")

The Requested Action With This object has failed.

What I've got so far.

$posttopic = $aTopicNums[(Random(0, 39, 1))]
        $maxmess = $aMessages[0]
        
        _IENavigate($IE,$Thread[1] & $posttopic)
        $IE = _IEAttach("Neopets")
        $Mb = $IE.document.frames.item("message_form")
        _IEBodyWriteHTML($Mb, $aMessages[(Random(1, $maxmess, 1))])
        _IEFormImageClick ($Post,"Submit","alt")

Source for the section of that page that I want to post in.

You'd have to attach the entire source so that the DOM can be mapped.

P.S. Attaching is better than codebox's when the text is very long.

If that is indeed the full source, this will work:

#include <IE.au3>

$sText = "enter text to send"
$url = "enter relevant url, or pass your own IE object to the form functions"

$oIE = _IECreate($url, 1)

$oForm = _IEFormGetObjByName($oIE, "message_form")
$oInput = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oForm, "message")
_IEFormElementSetValue($oInput, $sText)
_IEFormSubmit($oForm)

Already tried this, it doesn't work.

It works perfectly with the source you supplied. Attach appropriate source in the future.
