Script Fails At IE File Open Dialog

[horstj]

Hi All,

I have a script which uses _IEAction() to click on a "Browse..." button and I then get a "Choose File to Upload" dialog. However, after the the _IEAction() call, my script does not run anything else. It cannot detect the dialog window and it just seems to freeze up and run nothing after that line. Does anyone know what might be happening here? I posted on this page which seems to be the exact same issue, but there has been no activity in a long time and no one is following it so I thought I would open a new topic. Any help would be great!

Thanks

I too face the same issue but could not figure out a solution yet.

Can you both show us the element you are trying to click on?

Also, both please post your code to show was has been done, so that we can get a true idea of what you are both doing.

EDIT: DaleHolm did give a good example in the last topic to interact with a dialog window:

#include <IE.au3>
$oIE = _IE_Example("form")
$oT = _IEGetObjById($oIE, 'fileExample')
MouseMove(_IEPropertyGet($oT, "screenx") + _IEPropertyGet($oT, "width") - 10, _
          _IEPropertyGet($oT, "screeny") + _IEPropertyGet($oT, "height")/2) MouseClick("left")
WinWait("Choose File to Upload")
$hChoose = WinGetHandle("Choose File to Upload")
ControlSetText($hChoose, "", "Edit1", "C:\AUTOEXEC.BAT")
ControlClick($hChoose, "", "Button2")
