Internet Explorer tabs

[newtothis]

Hi can anyone help me with loading new urls in different interexplorer tabs,

I have been able to open internet explorer and a page in the window using _IECreate. Using the Send(Ctrl + t) key i can open a new tab but am unable to open the same web page in the new tab that has opened. Is this possable, I had thought that you could just loop around sending the same url to internet explorer each time after the send keys to open the tab.

I have searched the forum and found no way of doing this.

Many thanks for help

There is an undocumented function in IE.au3 that you can use to do this - __IENavigate (notice the double underscore). There are a few examples in the forum and you can look in IE,au3 for some documentation. I will likely have something in IE.au3 to do this is a somewhat different way in the not distant future.

Thanks for the reply dale I have spent the last while looking for the references you have made to __IeNavigate an dfound only two references to it. I have also looked through IE.au3 but am still no wiser, I tryed using __IeNavigate with the double underscore using Scite4 editor and autoit 3. I am obvisually missing something or doing it wrong can you show and example that would help. Thanks again for the reply.

I find 2 pages of posts when searching for __IENavigate

#include <IE.au3>

$oIE = _IECreate()

__IENavigate($oIE, "www.autoitscript.com", 1, 2048) ; open in a new tab

__IENavigate($oIE, "www.autoitscript.com", 1, 4096) ; open in a new background tab

Is there anything like __IEAttach() for connecting to existing tabs?

[DaleHohm]

_IEAttach works just as it is with most modes (except for WindowTitle and hwnd because they refer to the parent window and will give you a reference to only the active tab). Make sure you read the remarks in the 3.2.11.x beta helpfile for caveats about embedded and dialogbox modes.
