Autoit Website interface?

[LifeForceIV]

I wanted to make a script that would do a repetitive task each day the same thing over but detects the links in a web based interface and "clicks" on them. How can I get autoit to recognize the correct link and then click it to go to the next page? Also with a timer kind of like the winwait() function only waiting for the page to load?

Is this to difficult since autoit is more a windows api application?

Thanks,

Kyle

Look at the _IE functions in the helpfile. They should do exactly what you need

Thank you I've learned a lot more about autoit in the past few months of looking on the forums then the last few years since using v2. I will check out the _IE function just one quick question will I have issues since I use firefox?

Thanks,

...will I have issues since I use firefox?

Many will suggest that you script with IE using IE and surf with Firefox. If you want to script Firefox - search the forums for a UDF named ff.au3.

I've not used ff.au3 and I do not know if it has a wait-load UDF... it probably does. If not, you can use a loop with PixelGetColor on the progress bar.

I do some web page checkup spam . maybe not exactly what your looking for , maybe it will give you some idea.
