Need Help with _IEFormElementSetValue or Input type=file.

[BotBuddy]

Hi Mates

I am new here, new to AutoIT & Automation.

This is my first try at AutoIT

I have created a script to upload some image files to my account

Here is the code,

expandcollapse popup

#include
#include
#include
#include
#include
#include
#include
#include

$path = 'E:\HotUpload\1.jpg'
$ie = _IECreate( 'http://www.imgchili.com/')
_IEErrorNotify(False)
_IEErrorHandlerRegister()
$oForms = _IEFormGetCollection($ie)

;Debug Code to get fom info
ConsoleWrite( "Forms Info There are " & @extended & " forms on this page" & @CRLF)
For $oForm In $oForms
ConsoleWrite( "Form Info " & $oForm.name & @CRLF)
Next
ConsoleWrite("End loop of IE Forms" & @CRLF)
;There ae total of 1 form and its name is 0

$Index = 0
For $oForm In $oForms
$oFormElements = _IEFormElementGetCollection($oForm)
If IsObj($oFormElements) Then
$IndexElement = 0
For $oElement In $oFormElements
If $oElement.Type = 'file' Then
$oPath = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oElement, $oElement.Name, $indexElement+1)

$oElement.fireEvent("onmouseover")
$iBrowserX = _IEPropertyGet($oElement, "browserx")
$iBrowserY = _IEPropertyGet($oElement, "browsery")
$iWidth = _IEPropertyGet($oElement, "width")
$iHeight = _IEPropertyGet($oElement, "height")

ControlClick(_IEPropertyGet($IE, "hwnd"), "", "", "left", 1, $iBrowserX + $iWidth/2, $iBrowserY + $iHeight/2)
;ControlSetText(_IEPropertyGet($IE, "hwnd"), "", "",$path)

_IEFormElementSetValue($oPath, $path)
ExitLoop
EndIf
$IndexElement += 1
Next
EndIf
$Index += 1
Next

The problem is after executing the script, I get my cursor at the input fiels but my text specified in $path is not set.

I have tried ControlSetText & _IEFormElementSetValue.

But I can't set the Text.

Is there any way to do this? Any othe function or method?

Thanks.

It's a known security issue. Read the entire help file entry for _IEFormElementSetValue.
