Finding and accessing elements in a browser CRM aplication

[gspot]

Hi,

Im trying to manipulate a browser CRM aplication (siebel). I tried to find the elements with Developer Tools of the IE (printscreen atached). I want to click on a button (id=s_2_1_10_0_mb), i tried the fowling code but no success 

Local $oForm = _IEFormGetObjByName($oIE, "SWEForm2_0")
    ;Local $oForm = _IEFormGetObjByName($oIE, "_swecontent")

    Local $oInputFile = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oForm, "s_2_1_10_0_mb")
    IEAction($oInputFile, "click")

what am i doing wrong, any ideas?

thanks

The web page uses frames, so you need to use _IEFrameGetObjByName to get a reference to the desired frame before you can access the form.

I have tried the fowling (also no sucess).

I need to dig in through the frames, maybe? 

Local $oFrame = _IEFrameGetObjByName($oIE, "_svf1")
Local $oForm=_IEGetObjById ($oFrame, "SWEForm2_0")
Local $osubmit=_IEGetObjById ($oForm, "s_2_1_10_0_mb")
_IEAction($osubmit, "click")
IELoadWait($oFrame)

[Danp2]

Yes, it appears that there are nested framesets, so you probably have to work your way down to the desired one first and then try to access the form.

[gspot]

But there are lots and lots of frames and framesets   

Is there a simpler way?

Can someone give me an example?

Thanks a lot

Wow, what a pain.  Who were the marketing wizards to come up with that website!

Sorry, no other path.

Yes, it seems it can help me, a little advanced for me, but i will try to understand it

Thanks

if you need help just post the results of the simplespy as that gives the basic information to find the information you need to control the objects

example 8 will give you a good start

example 11 is the most abstracted version compared to all other examples but as with all simplified abstractions you have less power to do all commands

Hi!

I'm giving a try at this one once more. I try to click button "Consultar".

I use an internet tool that give me the following path/information to button:

Index: 49

id: s_2_1_10_0_mb

Innertext: Consultar

Outer Html: <A id=s_2_1_10_0_mb onmouseup=MinibtnUp(this.parentNode) onmouseover=MinibtnHover(this.parentNode) onmouseout=MinibtnOut(this.parentNode) onmousedown=MinibtnDown(this.parentNode) onclick="App().InvokeControlMethod('', 'PTC Todas Solicitacoes Service Request List Applet', 'NewQuery'); return false;" href="javascript:void(0)">Consultar</A>

FRAME - index - Name

Frame.1 - 27 - _sweclient

Frame.2 - 11 - _swecontent

Frame.3 - 12 - _sweview

Frame.4 - 5 - _svf1

 

I also have tried this  code with some variations... with no results

Local $oIE = _IECreate("http://somesite.com", 1)
        If @error <> 0 Then
            _erro("1 - Error: " & @error)
            ContinueLoop
        EndIf

    Local $oFrame1 = _IEFrameGetObjByName($oIE, "_sweclient")
    Local $oFrame2 = _IEFrameGetObjByName($oFrame1, "_swecontent")
    Local $oFrame3 = _IEFrameGetObjByName($oFrame2, "_sweview")
    Local $oFrame4 = _IEFrameGetObjByName($oFrame3, "_svf1")
    Local $oForm = _IEFormGetObjByName($oFrame4, "SWEForm2_0")
    Local $obutton = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oForm, "s_2_1_10_0_mb")

    ; Local $obutton = _IEFormElementGetObjByName($oFrame4, "Consultar")
;   Local $obutton = _IEGetObjByName($oFrame4, "s_2_1_10_0_mb")
    _IEAction($obutton, "click")

What am i doing wrong? any help will be appreciated.

Thanks

We aren't mind readers. Post the results from the Scite output window so that we can see where the script is failing.

Add some ConsoleWrite() commands after each line of the script so that we can determine which line is causing the error.

[gspot]

I haded trace lines to the code, and stops at line:   Local $oFrame1 = _IEFrameGetObjByName($oIE, "_sweclient")

So.... could be a bug in _IETagNameGetCollection, which is the routine where line 1808 occurs. Unfortunately, I don't have the time to try to replicate this.

Right now, you are the only one that can troubleshoot this. You should post a reproducer script that any forum member could run to allow others to help you.

[gspot]

What you mean reproducer script ?

The problem is that im working on a corporate website, not accessible outside company...

Any ideas?

Thanks

Thats almost impossible, its an CRM aplication only for business management like backoffice... thanks the same.
