Get Text from Stickam.com chatroom

[RiCK_420_333]

I need to get the chatroom text from the stickam chatroom Music Chat

(a link to my chatroom is provided here: http://www.HeavensDaemon.com/MusicChat.php )

I want to be able to retrieve the text sent to the room, so I can use it for various actions.

Global $WindowTitle = "http://www.stickam.com - Chatroom - Music Chat - Mozilla Firefox"
;Global $WindowClass = "MozillaWindowClass5"
Global $WindowClass = "[CLASSNN:MozillaWindowClass5]"
Global $WindowHandle
Global $TheText

Func Start()
    $StatusCheckBox1 = GUICtrlRead($CheckBox1)
    $StatusCheckBox2 = GUICtrlRead($CheckBox2)
    $StatusCheckBox3 = GUICtrlRead($CheckBox3)
    GUISetState(@SW_HIDE)
    WinSetState($WindowTitle, "", @SW_MINIMIZE)
    sleep(1333)
    WinSetState($WindowTitle, "", @SW_RESTORE)
    sleep(1333)
    WinActivate($WindowTitle)
    sleep(3333)
    WinWaitActive ($WindowTitle)
    If $StatusCheckBox3 = 4 Then    _Say('Program is now running!')
    ;ControlGetHandle("Title", "", "[CLASSNN:Edit1]")
    ;$WindowHandle = ControlGetHandle($WindowTitle, "", $WindowClass)
    $TheText = ControlGetText($WindowTitle, "", $WindowClass)
    ConsoleWrite($TheText)
    If $StatusCheckBox3 = 4 Then    _Say($TheText)
    MsgBox(0, "Text read was:", $TheText)
EndFunc

Any help or suggestion will be very much appreciated!! Thank you all!!

Might I ask why you need this? Please do not see me asking this as an insult, but a lot of people are into making bots these days, and we cannot be to careful.

You need to look at the IE.au3 functions. AutoIt cannot directly read text from a web browser.

Well I know in Visual Basic 6.0 I would have used:

FindWindow

&

FindWindowEx

Is there an Autoit equivalent to those?

I can get the Hwnd of the main window, now I just need to find the hwnd of the edit control and the one where it shows what people have typed.

    $WindowTitle = ControlGetText("", "", $WindowHandle)
    MsgBox(0, "Window Title", $WindowTitle)
        ; Down to this point I have successfully found my main windows handle, and also retrieved it's full title dynamically.
        ; Now I need to Enum the Child Windows or Controls to find my edit box for typing, and edit control for displayed text. 
        ; This is where I seem to be stuck, and could use some enlightenment.  I need FindWindowEx ?
