Guest Loki980 Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 I'm trying to activate Internet Explorer conditional upon a page with "1. " (number 1, period, space) shows up. I'm trying to use the following: WinWaitActive("Internet Explorer", "1. ") It doesn't work, but the following works: WinWaitActive("Internet Explorer", "1") This means the text field has a problem with periods. If anyone knows how to fix this, or what I'm doing wrong, or if there's an escape char for text, or if there's a better way to identify when a page is done loading in a browser, let me know. Thanks.

Guest Loki980 Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 Open AU3Info and check if you see "1. " in the window text field.......<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Ok, it's an ASP page, so what I thought was visible (1. ) isn't actually visible. I could trigger on the "Done" in the status bar, but is there a better way to do this for internet explorer? Waiting for pages to load in IE seems like a fairly common task.

therks Posted February 28, 2005 Share Posted February 28, 2005 No. You can't view the contents of an IE window in AutoIt. Something about COM support, which AutoIt doesn't have yet. It's more complicated than it looks. My AutoIt Stuff | My Github Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
