Display loop count

[JLogan3o13]

@ssah8 what have you tried? This forum is dedicated to helping people with their own scripts; it is not a place where people will spoon-feed the code to you. I would start with your GUI. Below is a framework for a simple GUI. Now look in the help file for the different fields you can add to a GUI, and find one that works for displaying your number. Then we can move on to pulling the information from the website.

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

GUICreate("Test", 300, 300)

GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

    While 1
        Switch GUIGetMsg()
            Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
                ExitLoop
        EndSwitch
    WEnd

GUIDelete()

 

Edit: And seeings as you have this topic open, please (before anyone else adds anything to this thread) explain how this post is different from this one:

I am very new to AutoIT (I started yesterday). The helpfile doesn't really makes sense to me. So Im asking here.

[ssah8]

Let's continue.

Let's say that I want a status box showing the views of this video:

How can I do this?

And again, how is this different from your previous thread, which seems to be asking the same question?

BTW, you are not going to get very far if you are unwilling to put in the effort. You need to post what in the help file is not making sense, and we can help clarify. No one is going to do it for you.

Beginners should first learn how to use the hammer, before trying to build a house of wood. So i suggest work through the relevant examples (_IE*, Gui* and Adlib in helpfile) to get the knowledge. After this you should know waht to do or ask with showing your script which doesn't what you want.

@AutoBert what part of this slipped by you? When a Mod is clearly asking questions as to the legitimacy of a thread, please stay out of it.

[ssah8]

I just wanted to know how to grab and update information from a website. So, can you please tell me?

[JLogan3o13]

Topics merged as the questions seem very similar, and you cannot seem to answer the simplest of questions.

Oh my god, I thought this community would be a great one...

Hello.

I was having some problems creating a loop counter. Could anyone help?

Care to elaborate what you exactly want and what this script is supposed to do?

Jos

[ssah8]

It's just a fun project. That website shows the login count and I want to boost that number. It's not something important, I just do it for fun and to practise AutoIT.

Think I saw that question before and don't see why that is "funny".

Jos

[ssah8]

I have never asked this question. I asked how to make a loop work, and I didn't get an answer so I had to figure it out myself.

Could you please just tell me how to make the counter work?

I see you were told before by a Mod not to create multiple topics, so consider this your last warning as we do not appreciate people ignoring us much.

Topics merged and you might consider stopping this line of questioning as you haven't been able to clearly explain your intentions.

Jos

[ssah8]

Multiple topics? I have never asked how to make a counter work...

[Jos]

Listen, I am not going into any debate with you and made myself clear. 
Consider this topic closed as you elected to question my action, and you better not open any new topic that even closely resembles this topic.
