Drew Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 (edited) Is there a way to read text that no , the AutoIt Window tool does not pick up... but yes , you can highlight it and copy ( clipboard it )... Seems if you can add it to the clipboard , it's possible to read it. But I can't figure out how. Thanks, *Drew Edited August 27, 2008 by Drew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TehWhale Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 It would really help us if you actually told us your issue and a description in the title. Most members don't even read topics with: "help" "question" "topic" in the topic title/description. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing the text in AU3Info.exe is not critical; can you see the control ID? Post the results from the summary tab with the mouse over the control involved (ctrl-alt-f to freeze the display while changing tabs). Valuater's AutoIt 1-2-3, Class...

Firefox does not expose internal browser workings to other processes with a COM Object interface the way IE does. The Mozilla class of objects do not respond to standard Windows API calls. If you must automate a browser with AutoIt, then use IE with Dale's IE.au3 UDF. Valuater's AutoIt 1-2-3, Class...
