[RESOLVED] A different problem with Webbrowser control

I'll explain my situation.

I have a webbrowser control in my form using which I fill a form a submit data. The comment submission form is supposed to have 3 text boxes but sometimes there could be 4. So I need to know the exact number before trying to fill the form. Also the issue is there could be more than one form in this page and therefore I can't call it like form(0) or form(1) as the index can vary. But the good thing is the id of the form to be filled is always the same. So I can call it with getelementbyid("postform").

So my question is how can I count the no.of text boxes belonging to the form with id "postform"?

I'm not sure how to do it with the webbrowser control, but it do it via javascript, you would do:

Code:

---

function CountTexts()
{
    var iTexts = 0;

    for( i = 0; i < document.getElementById( "postform" ).elements.length; i++ )
    {
        if( document.getElementById( "postform" ).elements[ i ].type == 'text' )
        {
            iTexts++;
        }
    }

    return( iTexts );
}

---

Hopefully this helps in some way. If you can loop the elements and count their type in VB, this should get you the number of input type=text.

Thanks Hobo. Let me try to convert it to VB.

I think this should do:

VB Code:

Private Sub Command1_Click()
    Dim oElement
    Dim n As Long
    For Each oElement In WebBrowser1.Document.getElementById("postform").Elements
        If oElement.Type = "text" Then
            n = n + 1
        End If
    Next
    MsgBox "No. of text fields: " & n
 
End Sub

Thank you Pradeep. It really worked.
Also many thanks to Hobo for giving me something to start with.
