Scroll IE Window with window.scroll()

[Noobster24]

Hi,

I try to open a IE window (with _IECreate() ), after loading the website, the page must be scrolled down. In Javascript it's possible by using window.scroll().

So, this is what I tried:

#include <IE.au3>
$oIE = _IECreate("http://www.mediacollege.com/internet/javascript/page/scroll.html",0,1,1,0)
_IEHeadInsertEventScript ($oIE, "window", "onload", "window.scroll(0,150);")

Unfortunately this doesn't work for some reason, however this one works:

#include <IE.au3>
$oIE = _IECreate("http://www.mediacollege.com/internet/javascript/page/scroll.html",0,1,1,0)
_IEHeadInsertEventScript ($oIE, "window", "onbeforeunload", "window.scroll(0,150); alert('It scrolls');")

But that's 'onbeforeunload', I would like to use 'onload' (like in my first codesample).

Anyone got an idea how to solve this?

Thanks in advance,

Andreas

PS:

Yes I read this topic: http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.ph...=window++onload

but I can't get it working still.

_IECreate, by default, does not give control back to your script until the onload event has already fired. So, just as in the other thread you reference it is silly to write an onload event to the page after it has already loaded.

That said, if your point is to scroll down on the page after it has loaded and your script gets control back right after it is loaded, why not just do this:

include <IE.au3>
$oIE = _IECreate("www.autoitscript.com")
$oIE.document.parentwindow.scroll(0,150)
