IE button click (button has only value)

[alinuzzu]

Hello all,

I have the code:

<form method="post" name="table_form" action="blabla?action=submit">

<table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="2">

<tr>

<td class="table_label">Apply to all messages found:</td>

<td><input class="std_button" type="button" value="Delete" onclick="java script:return table_form_confirm_submit('Are you sure you want to Delete all selected items?','Delete');"></td>

<td><input class="std_button" type="button" value="Release" onclick="java script:return table_form_confirm_submit('Are you sure you want to Release all selected items?','Release');"></td>

</tr>

</table>

I want to click the Release button.

I tried with:

...

$oButton = _IEGetObjByName ($oForm, "Release")

_IEAction($oButton, "click")

...

but it does not work since the button Release has no Name or ID .

Do you have any solution on how to click Release button?

P.S. Form Submit does not work either.

Get the collection of all "input" tags in that form with _IETagNameGetCollection(), and then loop through the collection until you find the one you want by _IEPropertyGet() looking for "innertext" of "Release":

#include <IE.au3>

; ...

$colTags = _IETagNameGetCollection($oForm, "input")
For $oTag In $colTags
; Might also work this way:
;   If $oTag.value = "Release" Then
    If _IEPropertyGet($oTag, "innertext") = "Release" Then
        _IEAction($oTag, "click")
    EndIf
Next

Thx for the reply. This works but now I got into another problem.

After I do the click a java script confirm window appears. (pop-up)

And want to click the OK button, but for some reason the script stops at that Pop up.

I tried the code below, but did not work. Script freezes and pop up window stays.

I also tried to Send("{ENTER}") with same result.

...

For $oInput In $oInputs

If $oInput.value == "Release" Then

_IEAction ($oInput, "click")

_IEPopUps()

ExitLoop

EndIf

Next

...

Func _IEPopUps()

Sleep( 3000 )

$tim = timerinit()

While 1

$windowtitle = WinGetTitle("", "")

Select

Case $windowtitle = "Security Alert"

WinActivate("Security Alert", "")

ControlClick("Security Alert", "", "Button1")

ExitLoop

Case $windowtitle = "Microsoft Internet Explorer"

WinActivate("Microsoft Internet Explorer", "Release")

ControlClick("Microsoft Internet Explorer", "Release", "Button1")

ExitLoop

EndSelect

If timerdiff($tim) > 60000 Then ExitLoop; <----- set the delay to whatever you need

WEnd

EndFunc

This happens because _IEAction() blocks the script until the page completes, but the page doesn't complete until the javascript (dialog box) is complete.

Look in the help file at example 2 under _IEAction() for an alternate method. You said you did Send("{ENTER}"), but did you just give focus to the control first or try to click it? If you tried to click it, the AutoIt script didn't continue to Send().
