IE filling out form without a formname or submit button

[RobertK]

Hi all,

I've found this code in the example section:

#include <IE.au3>

$sBrin = ""
$sPass = ""

$sURL = "http://www.klassetv.nl/"
$oIE = _IECreate($sURL)
$oForm = _IEFormGetObjByName($oIE, "")
$oBrin = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oForm, "school_loginnaam")
$oPassword = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oForm, "school_wachtwoord")
$oButton = _IEGetObjByName($oForm, "")

_IEFormElementSetValue($oBrin, $sBrin)
_IEFormElementSetValue($oPassword, $sPass)
_IEAction($oButton, "click")

The site uses this form:

<form method="post" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">

                            <input name="type" type="hidden" value="schoolaanmelding" />
                          <input name="action" type="hidden" value="inloggen" />
                          <img alt="inloggen" src="/images/inloggen_label.gif" />
                          <span><input class="footer_input" name="school_loginnaam" onfocus="if(this.value == 'brin') this.value = '';" onblur="if(this.value == '') this.value = 'brin';" type="text" value="brin" /></span>
                          <span><input class="footer_input" name="school_wachtwoord" onfocus="if(this.value == 'wachtwoord') this.value = '';" onblur="if(this.value == '') this.value = 'wachtwoord';" type="password" value="wachtwoord" /></span>
                          <input class="footer_button" src="/images/login_button.gif" type="image" />
                        </form>

As you can see, this form has no name tag defined and there is no submit button but an image (also without name).

I've looked all over the place, but since a name tag is part of the W3 standards (if I'm correct) nearly all sites have it.

If you can tell me how I can fill out this form, and perform the login automaticly please help me.

(ps sorry for the dutch text, but it's a dutch site on which there should be logged on)

Look at the examples in the help file under _IEFormGetCollection(). By default it returns a collection of all forms, but you can give it a 0-based index to a specific form, for example _IEFormGetCollection($oIE, 2) returns the third form.

If you don't know which form, or it changes on a dynamic page, get the collection and loop through them looking for the attribute/tag/text/etc. that will identify what you are looking for.

thnx man

it works great, found that you can submit a form with _IEFormSubmit($oForm)
