put the browser in a GUI, then make it invisible

$oIE = _IECreateEmbedded ()
$Form1 = GUICreate("Form1", 500, 500, 193, 125)
$GUIActiveX = GUICtrlCreateObj($oIE, 0, 0, 500, 450)
_IENavigate ($oIE, "E:\AutoIt Project\xample.html")
GUISetState(@SW_HIDE)

Yeah as you said above and just discovered again, shellexecute will open up firefox for you. You have to open the website in some web browswer, even if you use a hidden or embedded broswer window your still using IE.

If you are really not going or can't use IE at all your out of luck unless there is another web browser you can script to interact with...I've heard you can't really do this with firefox.

So pretty much you have what d4rk mentioned, you have _IECreate and can make that hidden, or you try to find another browser... I can't think of anything else.

Why can't you use IE exactly?

EDIT: Good catch AL3X I forgot about that... I have no idea though if that will work for what you want though Vegar

Try this but I don't have my portable drive with FF hooked to this system right now so I can't check it.

Opt ("WinTitleMatchMode", 2);; any part of the title is recognized but it is still case sensitive.
ShellExecute ("http://www.website-hit-counters.com/cgi-bin/image.pl?URL=52148-0061")
Do
   Sleep(2)
Until WinExists("whatevere text is in the title bar for FF")
WinSetState("Same text as above", "", @SW_Hide)

Look at the IE management functions. You can send data to a form in a hidden IE window. That will allow you to log on.

But what is best???

Try to make this in firefox

or

make it in internett explorer ( but then i need to make automatic Login!! )

Do it with whatever works best. If my last posted code doesn't do it in FF then you may have to do it using IE unless someone else comes along with something that works in FF.

$Url = "http://dundats.mvps.org/autoit"
ShellExecute(@programFilesDir & "\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe", $Url, "", "", @SW_Minimize)

I used @SW_Minimize for demonstartion purposes only, to show that it works. You can change that to @SW_Hide

Actually here is a more complete example that uses @SW_HIDE

Opt ("WinTitleMatchMode", 2)
$Win_ttl ="Internet Explorer"
$Url = "http://dundats.mvps.org/autoit"
$process = ShellExecute(@programFilesDir & "\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe", $Url, "", "", @SW_Hide)
Do
   Sleep(10)
Until WinExists($Win_ttl)
Sleep(10000)
If MsgBox ( 262180, 'Hey there!!!', 'Do you want to display the hidden IE window?') = 6 Then
   WinSetState($Win_ttl, "", @SW_Show)
   WinActivate($Win_ttl)
Else
   WinClose($Win_ttl)
   MsgBox(0, "Closing", "Bye for now, but you will be back", 5)
EndIf
If ProcessExists($Process) Then ProcessClose($Process)
Once the window exists it will wait 10 seconds before opening a MsgBox to ask if you want to display the window. Choose Yes to see that it worked or No to close the process

As has already been explained, FF will not open hidden.
