Assigning the variable of InnerText to constantly changing InnerText to code

chngrcn · 09 Aug 2018, 09:49

<label id="formId:tescilliAracIslemComponent:tescilliAracIslemAracSorgula:j_idt167" class="ui-outputlabel ui-widget">Vehicle Query</label>

we send the data via the auto hot key on the internet page where we made the vehicle inquiry.

but there is a constantly changing form id number.

label id = "formId:tescilliAracIslemComponent:tescilliAracIslemAracSorgula:j_idt167"
j_idt167 section changes every day. "j_idt169" or "j_idt180" in the day .... there is a constantly changing code. so every day I have to change the codes manually by logging in ..

can you get the most current version of this code when you load the page from your page?

I want to automatically get the variable we mentioned when loading the page, in the code I use myself. page is loading
"formId:tescilliAracIslemComponent:tescilliAracIslemAracSorgula:j_idt???"
and fetch the most current state in the code.

I can give hope.

Thank you for your help.

note : I have to manually fix the InnerText because it changes continuously throughout the day.
so when the page loads, I want to get the related code innertext and place the corresponding part in my code.

Code: Select all

loaded := false
While !loaded
{
    try
    {
        if (pwb.document.getElementById("formId:tescilliAracIslemComponent:tescilliAracIslemAracSorgula:j_idt167").innertext = "Vehicle Query")
            loaded := true
    }
    Sleep 10
}

Hi chngrcn,

I'm not sure to fully understand what you're trying to achieve.

Maybe you're trying to get a way to reliably retrieve a specific HTML element, whose id is changing. In this case, if you're lucky, you can do this using getElementByClassName:

Code: Select all

; getElementsByClassName returns an HTMLCollection; you might need to specify a number different from 0 as index
element := pwb.document.getElementsByClassName("ui-outputlabel ui-widget")[0]

Otherwise, for a finer identification, use querySelector:

Code: Select all

; a simple wrapper for the querySelector method
pwb.document.parentwindow.execScript("var _wrapper = {querySelector: function(_selector) { return document.querySelector(_selector); }};")
; ...
element := pwb.document.parentwindow._wrapper.querySelector("label[id^='formId:tescilliAracIslemComponent:tescilliAracIslemAracSorgula:j_idt'].ui-outputlabel.ui-widget")

Hope this helps.

I tried this code but I did not get results. Could you write it in different versions by developing a little bit more of your code .. I guess it's something we caught.
please show this code of your innertext with MsgBox .. please try to write different codes.
thank you so much

It works in the html code you have given. but the pwb method I'm implementing (internet explorer) is not working on code.
Can I ask you something like this?
in the html code I have given, how can we display the formId part with MessageBox?
part I need the formID part. constantly changing part formID code.

Code: Select all

<label id="formId:tescilliAracIslemComponent:tescilliAracIslemAracSorgula:j_idt167" class="ui-outputlabel ui-widget">Vehicle Query</label>

I want you to give it with the message when the page is loading.
formId:tescilliAracIslemComponent:tescilliAracIslemAracSorgula:j_idt167

I see no reason why it should not work using the pwb method..

Once you get the element, use one of the following:

Code: Select all

id := element.id
MsgBox % id
id := element.getAttribute("id")
MsgBox % id

Maybe:

Code: Select all

; id := element.getAttribute("id")
id := "formId:tescilliAracIslemComponent:tescilliAracIslemAracSorgula:j_idt167"
RegExMatch(id, "\d+$", match) ; retrieve the last digits of the id attribute value
MsgBox % match
