Hi everybody Currently I need to tick a checkbox that runs on IE. But I can't click on it. Although the correct object has been specified. Here is my code: #include <IE.au3> $oIE = _IEAttach("WEB") $oLinks = _IETagNameGetCollection($oIE, 'span') For $oLink In $oLinks $a = String($oLink.classname) == 'x-column-header-text' $b = StringLeft(String($oLink.id), 10) == 'gridcolumn' If $a And $b Then _IEAction($oLink, "click") ConsoleWrite("Founded" & @CRLF) ExitLoop Else ConsoleWrite("Not Found" & @CRLF) EndIf Next After inspecting the element it shows only 1 line of code: <div class="x-column-header x-column-header-checkbox x-column-header-align-left x-box-item x-column-header-default x-unselectable x-column-header-first x-grid-hd-checker-on" id="gridcolumn-1588" style="margin: 0px; left: 0px; top: 0px; width: 24px; right: auto; border-top-width: 1px; border-bottom-width: 1px; border-left-width: 1px;"> <div class="x-column-header-inner" id="gridcolumn-1588-titleEl"> <span class="x-column-header-text" id="gridcolumn-1588-textEl"></span> </div> </div> Here is an image of the checkbox: I used more ways to check: - _IEGetObjById => IEAction($oLink, "click") not working - _IETableGetCollection => _IETableWriteToArray gives an error - _IEImageClick All are not working. Hope to get a response from everyone. Thank you very much.

I have a few questions: BACKGROUND I am using Oracle Application Testing Suite's OpenScript 13 (Eclipse IDE), Oracle Java 6, and AutoIt. My goal is to access a given Internet Explorer browser window (`$ieTitle`), send the keystroke of "shift-control-s" for "Save As" functionality to be invoked, so that I can download a (PDF) file to a given location ($fileName). The code within the script `DownloadPdfFile.au3` is $ieTitle = $CmdLine[1] $ieControl = "AVL_AVView31" $fileName = $CmdLine[2] ControlFocus($ieTitle, "", $ieControl) ControlSend($ieTitle, "", $ieControl, "+^s") ; Save as dialog $winTitle = "Save As" ; wait for Save As window WinWait($winTitle) ; activate Save As window If Not WinActive($winTitle) Then WinActivate($winTitle) ControlFocus($winTitle,"","Edit1") ControlSetText($winTitle,"","Edit1",$fileName) Sleep(2000) ControlClick($winTitle,"","Button3") Exit 0 So I compiled it with SciTE-Lite (32-bit Version 4.4.6 , creating `DownloadPdfFile.exe`, and so within my Java code, I have String command = autoItExePath + " " + scriptPath + " \"" + winTitle + "\" " + directoryPath.toFile().toString() + "\\Form9Report" + sdf_ddmmmyyyy.format(new Date()) + ".pdf"; try { Process process = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(command); process.waitFor(); } catch (Exception e) { logger.error("Exception " + e.getMessage(), e); } The output would be like `C:\Program Files (x86)\AutoIt3\AutoIt3.exe C:\...\AutoItScripts\DownloadPdfFile.au3 "https://****.com/****.exe?temp_id=**** - Internet Explorer" C:\...\Report05Apr2022.pdf"` which does run without the $cmdLine successfully. When executed by Java, I see in the taskbar an icon, which I right-click has "[Check] Script Paused" and "Exit". Questions: (1) How do I unpause the script? (2) How do I avoid having the script paused? Any help is appreciated.

Hi all, I've been using the following code for many years for the sole purpose of tracking my app usage via Google Analytics: ;GOOGLE ANALYTICS $AppStatsName = @ScriptName $GA = _IECreate("https://mywebserver/apps/stats/" & $AppStatsName & ".html", 0, 0, 0, 0) The app simply calls a blank .html page on my webserver which only contains the GA tracking code. The $iVisible parameter is set to "0" in my case, which means the IE browser is invisible to the user. I noticed in Windows 11, the URL is called in the Edge browser and is not invisible. So, I wonder if anyone out there has any suggestions on calling a URL invisibly on any operating system? Thanks!

I have come across a weird issue that I am not sure how to solve. For some reason, whenever I call WinActivate in certain scenarios instead of opening the single window that already exists, it will create a new blank tab. It should be able to be recreated with this: AutoItSetOption("WinTitleMatchMode", 2) Sleep(1000) For $i=0 To 10 WinActivate("Internet Explorer") Next I am not actually doing this in my code, it is just to demonstrate the fact that new tabs keep popping up. Does anyone know why this happens? EDIT: So I am not sure how reproducible this is, because it only happens every once in a while for me. I will update with more info if I find out anything.

Is it somehow possible to use SVGPathElement DOM interface to convert a SVG file to polygons within AutoIt? load a SVG file with AutoIt convert the SVG vectors to polygons using this interface export the polygons to a file I don't know whether it works also for multi vectorized objects. An example is here: http://phrogz.net/svg/convert_path_to_polygon.xhtml / http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8091983/convert-path-to-polygon / https://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/paths.html#InterfaceSVGPathElement I've absolutely no experiences with this kind of stuff (you know it is not GDI+ ;-)) THANKS.

What is the way to use proxy with authentication in automating IE? I managed to change proxy and port in registry, but I can't find a way to use login and password for proxy. Can anyone point to a working way?

I am looking to create a script which refreshes/reads a webpage every few seconds. My goal is to see if the page has changed, then I will send myself a notification that the webpage has been updated. However, rather than downloading the entire webpage every single time, is there a way to check when the webpage last updated? If not, is there away to partially download/read html source until a specific tag is hit? Goal: I would like to increase my poll rate and not excessively waste data.

I was allways wondering How to get reference to AcrobatReader object and after all to the PDF file embeded in IE. Today I was here: http://www.vitoplantamura.com/index.aspx?page=axvncviewer there is such a interesting html: When I analyze this then I start to wonder about this line: EDIT: above fraction was only an introduction, describing where it came my question. And now then the question arise : How I can use document.all to get the refrence to specified AxObject in this Case I mean to AcrobatReader opened in IE ? EDIT: of course I mean a case when I have opened document in IE.

Hope maybe tomorrow somebody solve this issue.

Am trying to automate injecting credential on the login form for all kind of Web application for IE. I know how to identify the form name by viewing the source code and using the method - _IEFormGetObjByName($ie, $form_Name). I would like to know how to identify or get the form object for the web app where there is no form name tag for example below, for the is I have used - _IEFormGetCollection($ie, 0) to get the form object. My Question is does it work for all kind of application "_IEFormGetCollection($ie, 0)" how to identify Index value? is it always 0? is there any better solution? The final solution am looking for is find out form object, get the username, password field and inject credential and submit the form. How to find out index value? for the forms which does not have form name field. $login_form = _IEFormGetCollection($ie, 0) $email_field = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($login_form, $form_UserName) $pass_field = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($login_form, $form_password) $login_button = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($login_form, $form_submitbutton) _IEFormElementSetValue($email_field, $CmdLine[2]) _IEFormElementSetValue($pass_field, $CmdLine[3]) ControlSend($hwnd, "", "[CLASS:Internet Explorer_Server; INSTANCE:1]","{Enter}") OR This works fine if the form has form name. $login_form = _IEFormGetObjByName($ie, $form_Name) $email_field = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($login_form, $form_UserName) $pass_field = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($login_form, $form_password) $login_button = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($login_form, $form_submitbutton) _IEFormElementSetValue($email_field, $CmdLine[2]) _IEFormElementSetValue($pass_field, $CmdLine[3]) ControlSend($hwnd, "", "[CLASS:Internet Explorer_Server; INSTANCE:1]","{Enter}")

Hello , A website I am trying to login with my credentials. And retrieve the cookie into a text file. Unable to do so. Is it that certain, Httponly , type - are not allowed to be fetched. Then further , I will be checking every 5 minutes if my session is active , else re-login and re-fetch the cookie. For the second part , I will probably fetch some table and see if not in appropriate format do Part 1 : Fetch Cookie - again. Any better way , tips would be appreciated. Thanks

Hello All, I am new to auto It and coding. Have only tried few automated logging for different websites. The login pages of the websites which I have worked on were having form name with input type as text and it seems straight forward to automate their login using "_IEFormElementSetValue". I have got a url, it does not have any form in the source page. On further analyzing I found that It does call some login page separately as below. function showLogin(arg) { Global.pollingDialogDoc = null; var fresh = jQuery.isValidString(arg) && "fresh" == arg ? !0 : !1, appFrame = $("#appFrame"); if ($("#modalFrame").show(), $("iframe").hide(), fresh || !appFrame.attr('src').match("html/login.html")) appFrame.attr('src', baseURL + 'html/login.html'), appFrame.on('load', function() { setTimeout(function() { $("#modalFrame").hide(), appFrame.show(); }, 1); }); else try { window.frames.appFrame.updatePageFromIndex(); } catch (e) {} } I can simply use "send" and "mouse click" Method to automate the login but that doesn't seems very reliable. Is there any separate way to fill the user ID and password to the respective fields by having reference by frames or something. Appreciate if any one can point me to correct document or help in any way...!

Hello! Thanks you for looking at my post **No source code I'm sorry work related can't copy information** I've been using autoit for about 1 year. I'm having trouble automating a click on an internet explorer web page and I've tried a lot of examples from help pages and forums already. The object I'm trying to click on isnt always in the same spot so I can't use mouse click or control click, I have tried to use the different get collection options and clickbyname, or index or get object. I'm just struggling. Description of object I'm trying to click -- HTML Code looks like <a ng-click.. "Click Here" it appears it's just a click able object named "click here" that opens a hidden window by running a script inside the web page. I'm not able to grab the information from the window unless it's open so I have to automate this click somehow. I understand it's difficult to assist without having something to look at, I apologize for that sincerely and appreciate and assistance and suggestions.

hello please i need help i need to open link in default browser only one windows without duplicate if i try to open the same link thanks

I've tried for a few days to simply open a url in IE and click an IE object that I can't "TAB" to and don't want to use a mouse-click if at all possible. I've read up on things like using IEAction and IETagNameGetCollection to find the object but not smart enough to figure out how that works with my url or how to tell if my url is "basic" or a "form", "frameset", "iframe", etc. The other problem is I've tried using the "Run" and "ShellExecute" commands to open the browser, which works, but it opens it in a way that doesn't include my currently logged in user account. For example, if I just click IE or Chrome for that matter and open my default homepage of google, the page that opens knows I'm logged in. When I use "Send" "ShellExecute" or "_IE_Create" they always open pages generically which would require a login. So questions are, if I have a URL I'm trying to open, that's passes the currently logged on users credentials when opening the page (no clue where that happens) 1. Are there any code examples someone is willing to share that opens my IE maximized, with logged in credentials, and 2. Once that works, can someone suggest a technique a non-developer can find which IE Objects I need to send a "click" to so it opens the correct menu, pop-up, url, etc., associated with that object. I've copied what doesn't work and sure I'm way off but it's not for a lack of effort. I'll keep trying and post updates but not looking good 🙂 #include <IE.au3> Call ("selection") Func selection () Global $oIE = _IECreate ("https://internal-webpage.aspx") Local $selectid = _IEGetObjByName ($oIE, "signageNo") Local $button = _IEGetObjByName ($oIE, "GO") _IEFormElementOptionSelect ($selectid, "3") _IEAction ($button,"click") EndFunc #include <IE.au3> Call ("selection") Func selection () Global $oIE = _IECreate ("https://internal-webpage.aspx") Local $selectid = _IEGetObjByName ($oIE, "signageNo") Local $button = _IEGetObjByName ($oIE, "GO") _IEFormElementOptionSelect ($selectid, "3") _IEAction ($button,"click") EndFunc 1.

IE Embedded Control Versioning Use IE 9+ and HTML5 features inside a GUI This UDF allows the use of embedded IE controls which support IE versions greater than IE 7. By default, all embedded IE controls default to IE 7 compatibility mode (unless for some reason somebody has IE 6 installed!), so its not possible to use most of the HTML5 features available today. Fortunately, IE 9 and greater allow the use of HTML5, and the embedded IE control actually supports it. The problem is convincing Windows to let your program actually use those features! There are Registry branches that modify how an IE control works in specific programs. Those branches are: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\MAIN\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\MAIN\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION In at least one of these branches, the executable name needs to appear as a value name ("autoit.exe" for example), and the value data needs to indicate what IE version to 'emulate'. The value data is actually dependent on the version and whether quirks-mode is enabled. See Web Browser Control - Specifying the IE Version for more information. Note that a 64-bit O/S needs adjustments to the HKLM paths. Also, prefer the HKCU branch unless the program needs to enable access across all user accounts. HTML5 Canvas Element Example Anyway, all the complexity of setting the right value with the right name with the right 32/64-bit branch is handled for you in this UDF. Enabling support for IE9+, and new HTML5 features, is as simple as making one call to _IE_EmbeddedSetBrowserEmulation(). _IE_EmbeddedSetBrowserEmulation() takes an executable name (@AutoItExe if none is provided), and checks the Registry for an entry for it. If it doesn't find one, it will create one and enable support for later versions of IE. The full parameters to the function are as follows: _IE_EmbeddedSetBrowserEmulation($nIEVersion, $bIgnoreDOCTYPE = True, $bHKLMBranch = False, $sExeName = @AutoItExe) The parameter passed in $nIEVersion can be anything from 8 to 11 [or 12+ in the future], or just the current version of IE, which is available also through a call to _IE_EmbeddedGetVersion(). $bIgnoreDOCTYPE controls when IE will go into quirks mode based on any "<!DOCTYPE>" declarations on webpages. This mode can cause major problems, so by default it is set to ignore it (set this to False to enable it). $bHKLMBranch controls where in the registry the Browser Emulation Mode setting will be stored. If you wish to store the mode for ALL users, set this parameter to True. Note, however, that elevated privileges are required for modifying the HKLM branch! If the call to _IE_EmbeddedSetBrowserEmulation() is successful, then you can enable a (more) HTML5 compliant IE browser control in a GUI. The complete set of functions in the UDF: _IE_EmbeddedGetVersion() ; Gets version of IE Embeddable Control (from ieframe.dll or Registry) _IE_EmbeddedGetBrowserEmulation() ; Gets Browser Emulation Version for given Executable (or 0 if not found) _IE_EmbeddedSetBrowserEmulation() ; Sets Browser Emulation Version. NOTE: HKLM branch REQUIRES ELEVATED PRIVILEGES! _ IMPORTANT: Setting the embedded browser object to a newer version of IE may alter the behavior of some things. See documenation for the HTMLDocumentEvents2 interface and HTMLAnchorEvents2 interface for example. Also, there is at least one difference in behavior noted by mesale0077 in working with IE10 (and possibly other versions of IE) - clicks for elements inside an <a> anchor tag will register as the actual internal element rather than the surrounding anchor. For example, an <img> element wrapped by an <a> anchor will only send the click to the <img> element and not propagate it any further. A workaround for this is to check the parentNode to see if it is an <a> element. See the discussion in the >ObjEvent dont work thread. It could be that there's some other reason for this behavior, but nothing has come to light yet. As an aside, also see trancexx's response in >ObjEvent usage for more techniques for capturing IE events.

Hi all. Sorry if my words are confusing because I am not good at English. I am writing code to embed website with Recaptcha in GUI. And then, the code will automatically press the "I'm not a robot" button. The problem here is: - The code still works fine when entering iFrame to interact with Recaptcha with the URL is "https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api2/demo" <snip> - But for other URLs (such as "https://recaptcha-demo.appspot.com/recaptcha-v2-checkbox.php"), the code cannot be entered into the iframe. Code: <snip> I did a lot of research but didn't know why. I sincerely thanks for the help.

I am pretty sure the site that I am using was updated and now I am not seeing the same tags/elements that I used to. I tried using a UIAspy to see if I could grab them that way with no luck. What do I need to do to be able to automate this again. Are the elements hidden somewhere? Instead of highlighting established account is highlights all of the web page almost. How can I get to the detail again? I used to grab establish account by the name. Now I have nothing to even try to grab. There are not elements in the event viewer either. This is what happens when I try to inspect the element and click established account. I get the same type of results in chrome

Hey there! I am having a problem with clicking a button in IE. As you can see in the code, there would be a class name to click it, but since this button exists several times with exactly the same code, I can only use the "Noch nicht veröffentlicht" to separate it from the others. But this part is just pure text without any classification. "<div class="checkmark" data-v-1e5b1f70=""><svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" class="icon" viewBox="0 0 16 16" data-v-1e5b1f70=""><circle cx="8" cy="8" r="8" data-v-1e5b1f70="" /></svg></div>Noch nicht veröffentlicht" I was trying to click it with: #include <IE.au3> local $oNNVs = _IEFormGetCollection($oIE2) For $oNNV in $oNNVs If String($oNNV.innertext) = "Noch nicht veröffentlicht" Then _IEAction($oNNV, "click") EndIf Next and: $inputs = $oIE2.document.getElementsByTagName("div") For $input In $inputs If $input.innertext == "Noch nicht veröffentlicht" then $input.click() EndIf Next But nothing seems to work. Thanks for the help!

Hello Everyone, I'm looking for a way to use an already open Internet Explorer (IE) window (if one is up and running) and then navigate to a new URL in a new IE tab. I thought that _IECreate would easily meet my needs. However, when I use the following script: #include <IE.au3> Local $oIE = _IECreate("https://" & $Server & ":8444/", 1, 1, 0, 1) ...with one or more open IE windows, it still opens yet a new IE window. Are there any other ideas for how to reliably use an already open IE windows and then how to open a new tab in IE to navigate to a new URL? Regards, TX Techie

I send Pushbullet Updates (pushbullet.com) of my script using its native API and i have the following code to do the same, but in some cases my internet connection sometimes stops responding and the notification can't be send using HTTP.send($sPD) methods,in such cases due to the lack of internet connection a runtime error (The requested action with this object has failed) is generated! This creates problems, as the stability of my script is affected. Is there a way to solve this problem?

Hi All, I've tried to create a script to browse to a web page in IE, but it only works for some sites, I've tried to simplify the script as much as possible, hoping you can point me in the right direction - thanks. This one going to Google does work: #include <IE.au3> $oIE = _IECreate("https://www.google.com.au/", 0, 1, 1) _IELoadWait($oIE) _IEQuit($oIE) But this one going to OneDrive opens the IE page, but fails immediately returning the errors, and the IE window is not closed: --> IE.au3 T3.0-2 Error from function _IELoadWait, $_IESTATUS_ClientDisconnected (-2147023174, Browser has been deleted prior to operation.) --> IE.au3 T3.0-2 Error from function _IELoadWait, $_IESTATUS_InvalidObjectType () --> IE.au3 T3.0-2 Error from function _IEQuit, $_IESTATUS_InvalidObjectType #include <IE.au3> $oIE = _IECreate("https://abccorp-my.sharepoint.com/", 0, 1, 1) _IELoadWait($oIE) _IEQuit($oIE) Even if I put a sleep timer in for 10 seconds after the _IECreate it still doesn't work Thanks all!
