Clicking link in IE table?


Recommended Posts

I am trying to automate a simple task that just clicks a link and then marks it resolved and then goes to the next link if there is one. 

I am not sure how to click the link though. I believe it might be in a table. 

I am trying to click the idx="0">132561 however the "132561" number will always change.

Is it possible to click it if the number is always changing?

<td tabindex="-1" class="dojoxGridCell eventReferenceCell eventReferenceCell_1" role="gridcell" style="width: 81px;" unselectable="on" idx="0">132561</td>

This is the html code for the link I want to click

 

#include <IE.au3>


   $oIE = _IEAttach("Welcome to assyst")
   _IELinkClickByIndex($oIE, 0) ;Clicks top link to pick patient

 Here is what I tried

_IETagNameGetCollection

Returns a collection object of all elements in the object with the specified TagName or a single element by index

Thank you for the response. 

#include <IE.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>

Local $oIE = _IEAttach("Welcome to assyst")
Local $oInputs = _IETagNameGetCollection($oIE, "input")
Local $sTxt = ""
For $oInput In $oInputs
    $sTxt &= $oInput.type & @CRLF
Next
MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "Form Input Type", "Form: " & $oInput.form.name & @CRLF & @CRLF & "         Types :" & @CRLF & $sTxt)

This is what I used

 

 

Attached is what I got after running the script

Have you tried File > Save As?

SaveAs from the IE Menu  not always is saving entire document content (especially when it is https:\\).
The better soultions is to use _IEDocReadHTML  +  FileWrite
