COM link open for IE, how to click on "Results" button

26 Jul 2017, 22:20

Hi,

Im fairly new to the whole COM commands especially with the Internet Explorer items (I have been dealing with Excel COM cmds alot). Nonetheless, is there a simple method to click on a button that reads "results" without knowing anyother details? I also have a selection box, that I would like to select two items in it. Any suggestions?

Thanks
okl

you'd have to right click to uncover its element; if it's javascript, look out for the ID.

then you can use javascript commands via AHK to click on it.

alternatively, you can use the find image function in AHK to search for the results button and then click on it.

You should be able to identify relevant info from the pages source code.

was just going to refer to Joe Glines. He also has a Click Text function on the syntax writer he made. Very useful. :)
