Get the collection of all form elements with _IEFormElementGetCollection(), or just all input tags with _IETagNameGetCollection(). Then loop through the collection looking for $oElement.value = "Bullet defaults".

Hi

Im sorry to be a pain but could do you have an example of this. Im looking through the help file but struggling to get it to work.

Cheers

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

For $i in $oForm

_IEaction($i,'click')

Next

I have tried the above and it does click on everything. How do i change this to just click the item i want.

I don't see how it clicked on anything at all, since _IEformGetObjByName() only returns form objects, not the form elements.

Anyway, this is what I meant:

$oForm = _IEFormGetObjByName ($oIE, "yellform")
$colInputs = _IETagNameGetCollection($oForm, "input")
For $oInput in $colInputs
    If String($oInput.value) = "Bullet defaults" Then
        _IEAction($oInput, "click")
        ExitLoop
    EndIf
Next

Hi Thankyou.

This is the best i came up with

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

For $i in $oForm

if $i.value = "Bullet defaults" then

_IEaction($i,"click")

EndIf

Next

Which i think is what you are doing but yours is just tidier.

Thankyou for your help!!!
