sigil 0 Posted October 3, 2007 I'm trying to script sending a message in Yahoo. I can get the To: and Subject: fields to fill, but I haven't been able to put any text to the main body of the message. I can work around this using Send(), but the IE.au3 functions offer a more elegant and faster solution, so I'd like to implement this using object manipulation as much as possible. Here's my script: #include <ie.au3> $yahoo=_iecreate("mail.yahoo.com") $lform=_ieformgetobjbyname($yahoo,"login_form") $login=_IEFormElementGetObjByName($lform,"login") $pass=_IEFormElementGetObjByName($lform,"passwd") _ieformelementsetvalue($login,"myUserName") _IEFormElementSetValue($pass,"myPassword") _ieformsubmit($lform) $button=_iegetobjbyname($yahoo,"composebutton") _ieaction($button,"click") _ieloadwait($yahoo) $compose=_ieformgetobjbyname($yahoo,"Compose") $to=_IEFormElementGetObjByName($compose,"To") $subj=_IEFormElementGetObjByName($compose,"Subj") $body=_IEFormElementGetObjByName($compose,"Body") _ieformelementsetvalue($to,"abc") _ieformelementsetvalue($subj,"def") _ieformelementsetvalue($body,"xyz") Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DaleHohm 65 Posted October 4, 2007 I don't use Yahoo Mail, so cannot easily see this. These types of input fields often turn out to be iFrames however -- if it is, use _IEFrameGetObjByName and then _IEBodyWriteText to make it work. If this isn't it, reply back.
