how to fill in forms of a current-active webpage


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I wish to fill in the forms of a current webpage. So what must I assign to $url below? I already have the field names. What other ways can I achieve to fill the forms of a current webpage.

What is the command to get the url of an existing active webpage.

Thanks

#include <IE.au3>

#Include <File.au3>

$url = ; what should I put here

Dim $oIE = _IECreate ($url)

$firstname_form = _IEGetObjByName ($oIE, "txtFirstname")

$firstname_value = $firstname

_IEFormElementSetValue ($firstname_form, $firstname_value)

$url should be the web address of the page. This was in the help file.

For those who are asking questions, look in the help file first. I'm tired of people asking stupid questions about how to do things when 10 seconds in the help file could solve their problem.[quote name='JRowe' date='24 January 2010 - 05:58 PM' timestamp='1264381100' post='766337'][quote name='beerman' date='24 January 2010 - 03:28 PM' timestamp='1264372082' post='766300']They already have a punishment system for abuse.[/quote]... and his his name is Valik.[/quote]www.minikori.com

Doesn't work needs to be ripped out of the troubleshooting lexicon. It means that what you tried did not produce the results you expected. It begs the questions 1) what did you try?, 2) what did you expect? and 3) what happened instead?

_IEAttach

Thanks,

What I want to do is to fill in the forms of a current active page. The url of this page is unkown to me because when I click a link, I was redirected to that page and I need to fill in the forms. So how do I fill in the forms of that page? This is what I have done but it wont work. Lets use yahoo sign-up form as an example. https://edit.yahoo.com/registration?.intl=u...omo=&.last=

;;;;; start of my script that wont work ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

#include <IE.au3>

$oIE = _IEAttach ("yahoo")

$oIE = _IEPropertyGet ($oIE, "locationurl")

$firstname_form = _IEGetObjByName ($oIE, "firstname")

$firstname_value = "firstname"

_IEFormElementSetValue ($firstname_form, $firstname_value )

;;;;;; the output I got the following error ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

--> IE.au3 V2.4-0 Warning from function _IEAttach, $_IEStatus_NoMatch

--> IE.au3 V2.4-0 Error from function _IEPropertyGet, $_IEStatus_InvalidDataType

--> IE.au3 V2.4-0 Error from function _IEGetObjByName, $_IEStatus_InvalidDataType

--> IE.au3 V2.4-0 Error from function _IEFormElementSetValue, $_IEStatus_InvalidDataType

Nothing else matters until you fix the specification in _IEAttach() so that it will correctly find your existing instance of IE.

:P
