[Resolved]_IE functions: Deal with in-frame editor

[nguyenbason]

Hello all,

I'm making a utility to post something to blog, forum. Thank god i did it, i can post to there.

But problem comes out when I'm making text area for type text to post, but the edit control of GUI is too simple, some rich edit require dll and don't perfect also.

I'm going to use editor of blog (Like editor right now I'm typing to you) and here it's: http://space.livevn.com/editor.php?charset...&allowhtml=

I make a IE object and navigate it to here, run the GUI, and ... wow, you can type into it like you are in blog but problem is... HOW can i get data from this text area? Of course It should includes same format to post same format to blog.

How can i do it?

Thanks,

$ieInput = _IECreateEmbedded()
$EditorGUI = GUICtrlCreateObj ( $ieInput,40, 360 , 450 , 225 )
$ieInput.navigate("http://space.livevn.com/editor.php?charset=utf-8&allowhtml=")
_IELoadWait($ieInput)
$ieInput.document.body.Scroll = "no"

The text is located within the iframe HtmlEditor. You will have to drill down to it.

You will want to get a handle to the tag that contains the text then use something like IEFormElementGetValue.

You're on the right track, but...

#include <IE.au3>
$oIE = _IECreate("http://space.livevn.com/editor.php?charset=utf-8&amp;allowhtml=")
$oEditor = _IEFrameGetObjByName($oIE, "HtmlEditor")
_IEBodyWriteHTML($oEditor, "The time has come for all good men to come to the aid of their country.")

Thanks for your reply Dale,

But as i said on first post. I can write to it that why i can post to blog.

Look at this:

You can see editor in my program, my question is: When users write data to this editor, how can i get it to post to blog?

Tried but don't work. Can you give a example with above link?

Not sure I understand your question. You want to figure out how to get the text OUT of the editor to post it somewhere else?

$sHTML = _IEBodyReadHTML($oEditor)
