Filling In an Input Box in IE

[RAMMRODD]

; *******************************************************

; Example 1 - Open a browser with the form example, set the value of a text form element

; *******************************************************

;

#include <IE.au3>

;$oIE = _IECreate ("http://mobsterstrategy.com/mobadd.php")

$oIE = _IE_Example ("FORM")

$oForm = _IEFormGetObjByName ($oIE, "ExampleForm")

$oText = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($oForm, "MySpaceID")

_IEFormElementSetValue ($oText, "Hey! This works!")

This is literally out of the help file with my input "commented out". It may not be proper but it opens the IE browser at goes to the website, but it doesnt fill in the Input box. I viewed the source code and found the input box's "name" but thats not working. Any help would be appreciated. I commented out the line I added so its in its "stock" form except for changing the ID. I want it to go to that website and enter numbers in the input box and submit.

Thanks

This will work for your site...

#include <IE.au3>
$oIE = _IECreate ("[url="http://mobsterstrategy.com/mobadd.php"]http://mobsterstrategy.com/mobadd.php[/url]")

$oForm = _IEFormGetObjByName ($oIE, "form1")
$oText = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($oForm, "MySpaceID")

_IEFormElementSetValue ($oText, "15591113")

$oBotton = _IEGetObjByName($oForm, "Submit")
 _IEAction($oBotton, "click")

I'm not home, but thanks for the reply I'll test it then.

EDIT: That didnt work...I probably found the wrong name of the box....how do I do that? Or can someone double check for me either way is great. My way was just with the HTML source....

so you run the script and it goes to the site enters in the numbers and submits it? When i try it it opens up 2 IE windows maximizes 1 of them goes to the site, and then nothing....Did I run it wrong?
