Need help--IE.au3

[darzanmihai]

How could I use the IE.au3 for the followings:

enter the site: http://www.opcom.ro/portal/content.aspx?la...O&item=2132

select the date--> select the button "View Report"---> select "Excel" in the combo that is initialy set to "Select a format" and then -->> click on "Export" for downloading the file?

I have never used the IE UDF and I have never worked with objects....

Could anyone help me on this matter with a code example and some guidence to help me understand.

Thx in advance!

At least please someone guide me how could I identify the IDs of the buttons I must push!

There are lots of code example in the helpfile for IE.au3. Each of them is a full, stand-alone, working example so run them, don't just read them.

For finding the object information on a page, I recommend DebugBar (see my sig).

Thx for the toolbar...it is great, but I still have 2 questions:

How could I simulate a mouse click on a button, if I know the buttons ID?--->for this one I tried _IEFormSubmit () but it does not do the job

How could I select a data from a combo box?--->for this I tried _IEFormElementSetValue (), but also it does not do the job for a combobox(it worked for the inputbox)

I only need some suggestions.

Thank you for your your reply...the DebugBar really helped me.

$date = "2008/9/1"

$oIE = _IECreate("http://reporting.opcom.ro/ReportServer/Pages/ReportViewer.aspx?%2fMCPweb%2fReport_MCP_simple_ro&rs:Command=Render")

$oInput = _IEGetObjByName($oIE,"ReportViewerControl$ctl00$ctl03$ctl00")

If @error =0 Then

$oInput.value = $date

EndIf

$oButton= _IEGetObjByName($oIE,"ReportViewerControl_ctl00_ctl00")

If @error =0 Then

$oButton.click

EndIf

_IELoadWait($oIE)

$oSelect = _IEGetObjByName($oIE,"ReportViewerControl_ctl01_ctl05_ctl00")

If @error =0 Then

_IEFormElementOptionselect ($oSelect, 6, 1, "byIndex")

Sleep(1000)

EndIf

$oLink = _IEGetObjByName($oIE,"ReportViewerControl_ctl01_ctl05_ctl01")

If @error =0 Then

$oLink.click

EndIf

Read the Remarks for _IEFormSubmit in the helpfile and user _IEAction as suggested instead.

As gooker points out, _IEFormElementOptionselect can be used to both get and set option values in a SELECT elemment (what you are calling a combobox).
