i tried this code:

$oForms = _IEFormGetObjByName ($oIE, "stuffform")

;$elements = _IEFormElementGetCollection($oForms,17)

$opostBody = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($oForms, "postBody")
_IEFormElementSetValue ($opostBody, "hi all")

But not working, how to do it?

[Juvigy]

$oForms = _IEFormGetObjByName ($oIE, "stuffform") this is wrong.

$oForms = _IEFormGetObjByName ($oIE, "form") this gets all the "form" objects. If you want "input" objects just replace it.After that you can see the form name for example like this:

oForms["index"].name

[luckyluke]

Do you think about this code

$oForms = _IEFormGetObjByName ($oIE, "stuffform")

$oTitle = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($oForms, "title")
_IEFormElementSetValue ($oTitle,"This is test post")

It's working, but can not working for postBody element, i dont know why?

[Juvigy]

Do you want to enter text here :

<div id="RichEdit"><textarea name="postBody" rows="17" cols="47" id="textarea" wrap="soft" tabindex="5" dir="ltr"></textarea></div> Or where ?

[luckyluke]

Yes, can you do it?

@Juviqy -- You obviously do not know how to use the IE.au3 library and I've seen a lot of bad advice and inforamtion comming from you lately. Please stop. Everything you've told this person is wrong. Please take the time to learn before you try to sound like an authority.

@luckyluke, please run your code inside SciTe and pay attention to the messages that are written to the console. You are on the right track with your code.

Dale

[luckyluke]

Thank Dale, i will try it, but can you tell me how to view the messages in the console?

[DaleHohm]

Edit your script using the SciTe editor installed with AutoIt and run your script with the F5 key.

Dale

[Juvigy]

Well Dale i am not an expert like you but just try to help - didnt quite get what the user wants exactly . But that is what are forums for right?

@luckyluke,

If you want to write in the :

<div id="RichEdit"><textarea name="postBody" rows="17" cols="47" id="textarea" wrap="soft" tabindex="5" dir="ltr"></textarea>

You can try something like

$oDoc = _IEDocGetObj($oIE)

$oArray = $oDoc.getElementsByTagName("textarea")

for $element in $oArray

if $element.name="postBody" and $element.id="textarea" then

$element.Value="some text that you entered"

EndIf

next

@Dale please tell me if my code is wrong as i want to improve:)

[DaleHohm]

@Juviqy - your latest code will work, but there are easier ways to do it in IE.au3.

Your previous post was a mess and you told the OP he was wrong when he was on the right track.

All things equal, the following two lines should do the trick:

$oTextArea = _IEGetObjByName($oIE, "postBody")

_IEFormElementSetValue($oTextArea, "my text")

If there is more than one element with the name of postBody, there is an optional index parameter to _IEGetObjByName. If this "doesn't work" there should be messages written to the SciTe console to help him.

@DaleHohm:

I dont see error or warning messages in console, even when i use this code:

$oForms = _IEFormGetObjByName ($oIE, "stuffform")
$elements = _IEFormElementGetCollection($oForms)

$num = @extended
for $i = 0 to $num - 1
        $oQuery = _IEFormElementGetCollection ($oForm, $i)
        _IEFormElementSetValue ($oQuery, "this is test post")
next

and i see nothing in input box of my new post in blogger.

Maybe Autoit cant use in this case.

@Juviqy:

$oDoc = _IEDocGetObj($oIE)
$oArray = $oDoc.getElementsByTagName("textarea")

for $element in $oArray
if $element.name="postBody" and $element.id="textarea" then
$element.Value="some text that you entered"
EndIf
next

It dont work anymore

thank

[DaleHohm]

You aren't getting to the correct form element then (or perhaps not even to the right form). Can't help much more without being abel to see the live site.

Dale

[luckyluke]

maybe you say true, but when i use _IEFormGetCollection i get only one form is "stuffform". If you have a gmail account, you can try blogger.com and create a blog and post a new post.

[DaleHohm]

If you look at the site with DebugBar you'll quickly see what is wrong. There is a textarea there, but it is not displayed:

<TEXTAREA id=textarea dir=ltr style="DISPLAY: none" tabIndex=5 name=postBody rows=17 cols=47></TEXTAREA>

The area that displays text is instead an iFrame:

<IFRAME id=richeditorframe style="DISPLAY: block" tabIndex=1></IFRAME>

#include <IE.au3>

$oIE = _IEAttach("Blogger")
$oFrame = _IEFrameGetCollection($oIE, 0)
_IEBodyWriteHTML($oFrame, "Good Morning")
