How do i make it so that any window will

[Mr.Sniper]

What i want to do is have a script run whether the window is open or not... and i tryed putting in the codes that are in the hlep file and i can only get it to work when the window is active... cuz lets say i want the internet to keep pushing refresh while i play a CD ROM game.... so i have the code:

$s = 15000
$i = 0
Do
    WinWait("Google - Microsoft Internet Explorer")
    Send("{BROWSER_REFRESH}")
    Sleep($s)
    $s = $s + 76
    $i = $i + 1
Until $i = 50
If $i = 50 Then
    MsgBox(48, "Script Done")
EndIf

so how do i make it so that will work whether the window is active or not??

Try using ControlSend instead of Send but I do not know if it will work with Internet Explorer, you will just have to try it and see.

Edit: use the ControlSend as described in the last post rather than 'Send' above....
