Yahoo Mail Login

[dcop]

CODE

$oIE = _IECreate("http://mail.yahoo.com",0,0)

$oform = _IEFormGetObjByName($oIE, "login_form")

$ologin = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oform, "login")

$opassword = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oform, "passwd")

_IEFormElementSetValue($ologin, $sUsername)

_IEFormElementSetValue($opassword, $sPassword)

_IEFormElementCheckboxSelect ($oForm, "keep me signed in")

Sleep(1000)

MsgBox(0,"","ready to submit")

If $i = 1 Then ShellExecute($killProcess)

_IEFormSubmit($oform)

I'm doing the above and it hangs at the _IEFormSubmit($oform).

Also how do I find the name of the specific elements like check boxes and buttons when there is more than one on a web page?

TIA, Dennis

Here you go:

#include <IE.au3>

$oIE = _IECreate("http://mail.yahoo.com",0,1)

$oform = _IEFormGetObjByName($oIE, "login_form")
$ologin = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oform, "login")
$opassword = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oform, "passwd")
$opersistent = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oform, "persistent")

_IEFormElementSetValue($ologin, $sUsername)
_IEFormElementSetValue($opassword, $sPassword)

_IEFormElementCheckboxSelect ($oForm, "", $opersistent, 1, "byindex")

Sleep(1000)
MsgBox(0,"","ready to submit")
;If $i = 1 Then ShellExecute($killProcess);Don't know what this was supposed to do?

_IEFormSubmit($oform)

I got the element ID from the html source.

Several ways you can get it. Open it in frontpage or somekind of web page design app.

I just opened it with notepad and searched for the text "Keep me signed in" Once I found that I just looked for a checkbox just before or after it.

Here's the section of html code

<p id="sigcopys"><input type="checkbox" id="persistent" name=".persistent" value="y"CHECKED> <label for="persistent"> <span class="kmsibold">Keep me signed in</span><br><span class="subperstxt">for 2 weeks unless I sign out.</span> <em class="nwred"><a

You will not always find ID's, it's not required for simple form functions on a page. In which case you will have to use the name field.

But given the choice use the ID. The ID has to be unique the name does not.
