2 submit buttons on form - same name

Hey guys,

Working on some IE automation, and I ran into a form with 2 submit buttons with the same name:

<input type="submit" name="queueType" value="Queue Immediate">&nbsp;

<input type="submit" name="queueType" value="Queue Overnight">&nbsp;

So when I call _IEFormSubmit, the site complains of the following:

An error occurred while evaluating the expression:

"#QueueType#"

I know there's an _IEAction function where I can tell it to click a button, but I'm not sure how to feed it the right button (I want it to click the first button in the list)

I got no clue how to proceed - any help would be appreciated :)

Use _IEFormElementGetObByName with an index...

$oForm = _IEFormGetObjByName($oIE, the-form-name)
$oSubmit = _IEFormElementGetObByName($oForm, "queueType", 0)
_IEAction($oSubmit, "click")

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?

Never would have associated it with a camel like that, but I'm glad you like it... :)
