Andy Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 I'm trying to automate logging in to GoArticles to save time, and whaddya know, their login form doesn't have a name so when I try the following: $o_form = _IEFormGetObjByName ($oIE, "form") $o_login = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($o_form, "email") $o_password = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($o_form, "password") $o_signin = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($o_form, "Login") AutoIt just spits errors at me, not surprisingly really. Anyone know if there's a 'default' name for a form if it has no name? Or any other clever ways around this little problem?
exodius Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 (edited) Look at _IEFormGetCollection, you might be able to reference it by index. Otherwise, You can try getting objects for the different form elements using _IEGetObjByName and then still using _IEFormElementSetValue to set the value of the input fields, then _IEAction ($object, "click") to click the submit button (followed by an _IELoadwait($object)).

I also found I could send the data using 'POST' which was quite useful.
