Another IE help topic

[monoceres]

I'm currently writing a script for a friend, it's supposed to log into his profile on a pic sharing community and upload pictures. The problem is with the forms (they never act like you want them to...). I can't write to a textarea on the upload page, I know the name and everything (text) but it just won't set the data

Here's my script:

#include <IE.au3>
;~ $user=InputBox("BDB användarnamn","Skriv in ditt BDB användarnamn")
;~ $pass=InputBox("BDB lösenord","Skriv in ditt lösenord","","*")
$user="developaccount"
$pass="supersecretpassword"
$browser=_IECreate("http://www.bilddagboken.se")
$loginform = _IEFormGetObjByName ($browser, "loginForm")
$userform=_IEFormElementGetObjByName($loginform,"user")
$passform=_IEFormElementGetObjByName($loginform,"pass")
_IEFormElementSetValue($userform,$user)
_IEFormElementSetValue($passform,$pass)
_IEFormSubmit ($loginform)
_IENavigate($browser,"http://"&$user&".bilddagboken.se/p/upload.html")
$theForm=_IEFormGetObjByName($browser,"theForm")
$fileform=_IEFormElementGetObjByName($theForm,"filen")
$textform=_IEFormElementGetObjByName($theForm,"text")
_IEFormElementSetValue($textform,"test")
_IEAction($fileform, "focus")
$hIE = _IEPropertyGet($browser, "hwnd")
ControlSend($hIE, "", "[CLASS:Internet Explorer_Server; INSTANCE:1]", "C:\mypic.jpg")

The page is in swedish but if you just let script finish you will have the textarea right in front of you

Thanks for all input

It's not a text area. It is an entire document in an iFrame.

$oFrame = _IEFrameGetObjByName($oIE, "text")

_IEBodyWriteText($oFrame, "Hello IE")

_IEBodyWriteHTML($oFrame, "Hello IE")

Hmm I can't get it to work. It seems like there are no frames, I tried with _IEFrameGetCollection () but it didn't return anything. I also seems like I don't have _IEBodyWriteText() on my system.

Thanks for your answer

[DaleHohm]

My bad, _IEBodyWriteHTML

DebugBar quickly reveals it is an iFrame... give it a try if you are not using it (see my sig).

There may be more frame nesting, so "text" may not be a frme in the main document. Again, DebugBar should help you find the structure.

Thanks so much for your help

I got it working now thanks to DebugBar.

Just one more question then I will be completely satisfied, any ideas how to submit all the data?

Normally you do this by clicking the "Ladda upp" button but I can't simulate a click on it

I also tried to submit the big form (the one that contains the file input) with no success.

[monoceres]

Bump!

I really need some help with this.

[DaleHohm]

Why can't you simulate a click on that button? What have you tried? What comes back to the SciTe console? You're using _IEAction, click right?

The problem is that I can't seem to get the button object, this is what debugbar says about the button:

<A class=button id=uploadButton style="MARGIN-TOP: 15px; FLOAT: right" jQuery1211043979221="8"><SPAN>Ladda upp</SPAN></A>

There are also some hidden inputs, named action, upload and MAX_FILE_SIZE, not sure if they have anything to with this.

I also tried _IEImgClick().

[monoceres]

I finally got it working

Used _IEGetObjById() to get the obj to the button.

@DaleHohm: Thank you very much for your support, not only did you write a very good UDF but you also help people with it.

Really appreciated!

[DaleHohm]

You're welcome. Glad you figured it out.
