need help getting a name from a link


Recommended Posts

Okay I know that _IELinkClickByText ($oIE, "user forum") will click on the link called user forum. I'd like to be able to do the opposite, well kinda. I'd like a function that when pointed at a link will get that links name.

Heres an example of what I'd like

Page Source Code

<div class="barL">
        Hello,<a href="http://forums.d2jsp.org/index.php?showuser=230548">SteelersSuck<img height=10 width=10 src="/images/i3.gif"></a>
        <a href="http://forums.d2jsp.org/index.php?act=Login&CODE=03">Log Out</a>
    </div>

$myname = somefunction($oIE,"http://forums.d2jsp.org/index.php?showuser=230548")

MsgBox(4096, "", $myname)

and this would display the name SteelersSuck in a MsgBox

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

The glass is neither half empty nor half full, it is simply twice as big as it needs to be.

$oLinks = _IELinkGetCollection($oIE)
For $oLink in $oLinks
    ConsoleWrite(_IEPropertyGet($oLink, "innertext") & @CR)

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?
