Modal Javascript Prompt in IE


Recommended Posts

I'm evaluating AutoItv3 and ran into a modal dialog prompt problem in IE.

I have a Javascript prompt in my web page to get some info from the user, when I use AutoIt, it can click the button and bring up the prompt but it seems like the script will pause until the prompt goes away.

I've tried from _IEAttach($DialogTitle, "DialogBox") to Send, ControlSend, WinGetHandle but none work.

I put in a couple MsgBox() to see where it fail and found that AutoIt pauses right when the modal dialog box displays.

The javascript is a very simple script:

ret = prompt('Enter Your Name:', "");

Have any body experience with this problem before and is there any solution?

Thanks

Please see the second example for the _IEAction function in the latest release.

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?

There's only 1 example for the _IEAction function (v3.2)

If you meant the second example in _IEAttach(), that didn't work either. Also, Javascript popup is not a "Internet Explorer_Server1" type so this function wouldn't work either, and I tried it.

The problem is that the script wouldn't execute any statement until the modal popup prompt is closed. Is that a bug/limitation in v3.2?

-Thanks
