Hi, I am trying to log into live.com using AutoIt. There are several examples, but none of them work with the current webpage. This is my code (because the username and password are not valid ;-) , I comment the "button click" out.): #include <IE.au3> Local $oIE = _IECreate("live.com") _IELoadWait ($oIE) _IELinkClickByText($oIE, "Sign in") $o_form = _IEFormGetObjByName ($oIE, "f1") $o_login = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($o_form, "loginfmt") $o_password = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($o_form, "passwd") $o_signin = _IEFormElementGetObjByName ($o_form, "idSIButton9") $username = "test@hotmail.com" $password = "testpassword" _IEAction ($o_login, "focus") _IEFormElementSetValue ($o_login, $username) _IEFormElementSetValue ($o_password, $password) ;_IEAction ($o_signin, "click") When I run the code I get the following: The value being set is garbeled with "PlaceholderText". Because of this, the username and password are invalid. Here screenhot of the placeholders text: When you start typing in one of the fields, the placeholder text is automatically deleted. When you set a value it stays. I found a workaround, to set focus on the element and send the username as an keyboard input to the field, but I would like a clean solution based on variables. So, does anyone now how to do this?
