Espada Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 I have an embedded IE object in a GUI which keeps giving me the error: IE.au3 V2.3-1 Error from function _IELoadWait, $_IEStatus_InvalidDataType The code which is causing the problem is CODE $oIE = _IECreateEmbedded () $GUIActiveX = GUICtrlCreateObj($oIE, 5, 110, 390, 160) $sHTML = "<h1>Hello World!</h1>" _IEDocWriteHTML ($oIE, $sHTML) If I use _IENavigate instaed of DocWrite, it works. What am I missing here. Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therks Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 That can't be all of your code... we need something we can run that demonstrates your problem. I obviously just get an error trying to run that. Are you actually getting an error, or just a notification? (does your script stop completely, or do you just see the "error" in your console?)

DaleHohm Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 The trouble is that a container is created with _IECreateEmbedded, but no document to write to. Just add this prior to your _IEDocWriteHTML: _IENavigate($oIE, "about:blank") 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? IE.au3 issues with Vista - Workarounds SciTe Debug mode - it's magic: #AutoIt3Wrapper_run_debug_mode=Y 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? Reproducer: a small (the smallest?) piece of stand-alone code that demonstrates your trouble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
