AutoIt v3.3.15.2 Beta View File 3.3.15.2 (13th May, 2020) (Beta) AutoIt: - Fixed: Map elements being lost due to a deep-copy logic fail. Submitter Jon Submitted 05/13/2020 Category Beta  

If you're wanting to use send or mouse clicks then recommend using Control.. functions (see ControlSend, ControlClick in the help file). If you wanted to write text to a file, then would recommend using FileOpen, FileWrite functions. Just my 2 cents.

Cheers guys for grouping around , Im getting somewhere, slowly, but steadily. I appreciate the prompts. Cheers.

The script below is the same as yours with 1 line added at the top. By default, the title string has to be an exact match starting from the beginning of the window's title. The asterisk (*) in the notepad title denotes that the file has been modified since it was last saved or created. The OPT function that I added to the script says that the string you provide for the title can appear anywhere in the title. If you use a -2, it will means it can appear anywhere in the title and is not case-sensitive. Opt('WinTitleMatchMode', 2) ;1 = Start, 2 = SubString, 3 = Exact, 4 = Advanced, -1 to -4 = Case Insensitive. run("Notepad.exe") WinWaitActive("Untitled - Notepad") send("This is some Text") WinClose("Untitled - Notepad") WinWaitActive("Notepad","Save") Send("!n") *Updated example Looks like there were a few changes to Notepad in Windows 10. The Save dialog's visible text has changed. The script above should work on Windows 10. You can lookup each command in the Help file to see how and why it works.

Hi, you should see and learn about Send function in Help file, the help file has a good example for your what you want: Example() Func Example() ; Simulate the key combination Win + R to open the Run dialogue window. Send("#r") ; Wait 10 seconds for the Run dialogue window to appear. WinWait("Run", "", 10) ; Simulate entering notepad.exe and pressing the 'ENTER' key. Send("notepad.exe{Enter}") ; Wait 10 seconds for the Notepad window to appear. Local $hWnd = WinWait("[CLASS:Notepad]", "", 10) ; Simulate entering the following string and pressing the 'F5' key to input the date and time into edit control of Notepad. Send("Today's time/date is {F5}") ; Close the Notepad window using the handle returned by WinWait. WinClose($hWnd) ; Now a screen will pop up and ask to save the changes, the classname of the window is called ; "#32770" and simulating the "TAB" key to move to the second button in which the "ENTER" is simulated to not "save the file" WinWaitActive("[CLASS:#32770]") Sleep(500) Send("{TAB}{ENTER}") EndFunc ;==>Example

you've got it !. So you are not stuck No clue. Updates ?

You have to trigger an "input" event on each of the input elements. The following code works for me -- #include <IE.au3> $url = "https://o" & "rdermanager." & "teca" & "llianc" & "e.net/new" & "app/" & "auth/login" $oIE = _IECreate($url) $oDoc = _IEDocGetObj($oIE) $oEvt = $oDoc.createEvent("HTMLEvents") $oEvt.initEvent("input", True, False) $oUsername = _IEGetObjById($oIE,"login-txt-username") _IEFormElementSetValue($oUsername, "me@test.com") $oUsername.dispatchEvent($oEvt) $oPassword = _IEGetObjById($oIE,"login-txt-password") _IEFormElementSetValue($oPassword, "Test1234!") $oPassword.dispatchEvent($oEvt) $oButton = _IEGetObjById($oIE,"changepwd-btn-request") _IEAction($oButton, "click")

These are the element id's of the elements that matched your given criteria. Now go back and read me earlier response about how to process them further to get the desired property / attribute from each one. You'll need to make some adjustments since your criteria has changed. P.S. Your requirements are certainly unique. Can you share more details on what your end goal is and what website is involved?

... it seems that at the end of each command sent to cmd, there is a request pending from the pipe asking for something to the 'caller'. (something like'do you need to send more data?') I have seen that sending an @CRLF as the first character of the next sending allows you to send further commands to cmd via NomedPipe. As if the @CRLF accepts the default answer which I suppose is "yes, I have more data to send, stay connected" (?) ... or something similar. However, although this workaround works (see line 30 in listing), it is not clear to me what happens under the hood. if anyone has a clearer idea than mine, i would be glad to know it. Thanks for any suggestions #include <NamedPipes.au3> #include <WinAPI.au3> ; Creates an instance of a named pipe Global $sPipeName = "\\.\pipe\pipename" Global $hPipe = _NamedPipes_CreateNamedPipe($sPipeName, 1, 2) Global $sPrefix = '' MsgBox(0, "Debug", "Pipe created.

Hi, You may well be getting a warning from your browser that the site SSL certificate has expired - and indeed it has. When Jon last moved server the automatic alert for certificate expiry was not carried over. He is on the case, but it may take a while to get the certificate renewed. In the meantime, nothing has changed here and the site is as secure as it ever was. Our apologies for the inconvenience - we hope things will be back to normal soon. M23

WinList(), with no options, lists all windows in Z-order, allowing you to save the previous order in a 2D arra. One usage of this is _WinPrevious().

If you don't want the title bar, you can use any of these two styles in GUICreate() > $WS_POPUP - Creates a window without a title bar, and without border. > $WS_POPUPWINDOW - Creates a windows without a title bar but with a border.
