aommaster Posted April 7, 2008 Posted April 7, 2008 Hi guys! Okay... so let's just say some hypothetical person is having a lot of fun with the IE functions in autoit This hypothetical person wants to have autoit click a link in IE that partially matches the string he provides. For example, assume that below are links on a web page: *Home *Boards *News *Contacts *Departments *Art Gallery So, if autoit is provided the word "art" in the _IELinkClickbyText function, it will click departments if the index it is given is 0. If it is given 1, then it will click Art Gallery. Thanks guys!

Copy the _IELinkClickByText() function to a new name, i.e. _IELinkClickByString(), then change just one line inside the function: From:If $linktext = $s_linkText ThenoÝ÷ Ù:ºÚ"µÍYÝ[Ò[Ý ÌÍÛ[Ý^ ÌÍÜ×Û[Õ^ H[ Valuater's AutoIt 1-2-3, Class...

PsaltyDS Posted April 7, 2008 Posted April 7, 2008 P.S. Don't expect support from Dale for any hacked versions of IE.au3... Valuater's AutoIt 1-2-3, Class...

aommaster Posted April 7, 2008 Author Posted April 7, 2008 P.S. Don't expect support from Dale for any hacked versions of IE.au3... Hehe... that is pure genius! It works perfectly!Strange he wouldn't give support... it's all his code with a minor tweak

iTechTed89 Posted May 9, 2012 Posted May 9, 2012 (edited) meaning? just use this?If $linktext = $s_linkText Then or is that the line i need to change and if so to what? Edited May 9, 2012 by iTechTed89
