ss3vegeta Posted May 28, 2009 Posted May 28, 2009 I'm trying to automate installation of some software that doesn't have a silent switch and forces open a web page. My question is: Is there a window info tool that can read forms? Or is there some other way to read in the webpage to find the tags for the form fields. Coordinates will not work because the resolution of the screen varies and some scrolling is required. Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks, ss3
ss3vegeta Posted May 29, 2009 Author Posted May 29, 2009 I'm using DebugBar v5.2.2, although I wish I could find something a little nicer.
bo8ster Posted May 29, 2009 Posted May 29, 2009 FireFox has FireBug. DebugBar is about the best out there - worth getting use to. Post your code because code says more then your words can. SciTe Debug mode - it's magic: #AutoIt3Wrapper_run_debug_mode=Y.

bo8ster Posted May 29, 2009 Posted May 29, 2009 You can use the dom tab to read the html of a selected form/field. Post your code because code says more then your words can.

Moderators big_daddy Posted May 29, 2009 Moderators Posted May 29, 2009 Thanks for the info. I just wish the info on form fields included the ID. All I see is the name and input type. ss3It will show the IDs, but only if they exist.
ss3vegeta Posted May 29, 2009 Author Posted May 29, 2009 It will show the IDs, but only if they exist.You're right. I didn't notice that when you are on the form section, if you click the form field it will show you all the details including the ID's in the source pane. I guess I just need to spend a little time familiarizing myself with it. Thanks everyone,ss3
