WebBrowser Click Button (JavaScript) [Resolved]

**TheVader** · Apr 19th, 2005, 07:29 AM

Well, for starters, just the HTML page doesn't do much without the JavaScript file that contains the code to generate the menu.

Can you attach that one as well (../html/js/menu.js).

As for the problem at hand, try viewing the HTML of the body at runtime, when the navigational buttons have been created (document.body.innerHTML). That code should include all generated content. You may be able to extract info of the buttons from there.

Thanks for the reply Vader

Ok, I have attached the JS file (as menu.txt(zip)), and the results of the innerHTML after the page had loaded as innerHTML.txt.

Note: I have many times tried to navigate to the wireless.htm directly thru code, but that generates browser errors. I guess there are a few unset variables that are requried - hence the browser errors. Because of this I have tried to submit a .Click to the 'wirless' button.

VB Code:

WebBrowser1.Document.location.href = "../cgi-bin/webcm?getpage=../html/home/home_wizard.htm"

innerHTML Results:

<FRAME name=fPanel marginWidth=0 marginHeight=0 src=""><FRAME name=fInfo src="../cgi-bin/webcm?getpage=../html/home/home_RelaodHref.htm&var:RelaodHref="><NOFRAMES>
<body bgcolor="#008080">
<p>This page uses frames, but your browser doesn't support them.</p>
</body>
</NOFRAMES>

(PS I have clipped the tail end of the attached Java Code (menu.txt))

Regards,
Bruce

I don't understand much of the structure of that site... but it looks like the index page is a frameset that contains other pages. You can get to those pages with the document.frames collection.

It would be much easier if I could just navigate to the page on the web; can you post the URL? I get script errors when I try to open mytext.htm with menu.js.

Unfortunatly I cannot provide the URL, as its internal to my ADSL Modem.

I will try to iterate Frame collection

Okay; this piece of code may help you. It adds all (inline) frames (including nested ones) to a collection colDocuments. You can use items from colDocuments just like any other document object (e.g. you can use colDocuments(0).body.innerHTML).

VB Code:

Private Sub GetFrames()
'Purpose: searches all frames in the document(s) and adds them to colDocuments
 
Dim i As Integer, j As Integer
j = 1
 
Set colDocuments = New Collection
colDocuments.Add WebBrowser1.Document
 
Do While j < colDocuments.Count + 1
    For i = 0 To colDocuments.Item(j).frames.length - 1
        colDocuments.Add colDocuments.Item(j).frames.Item(i).Document
    Next i
    j = j + 1
Loop
End Sub

Ok, thats what I needed. I now have the TD/TR matrix.

I will try to iterate thru that and on match, perform a .Click (to envoke the "doLink('/html/home/wireless.htm')!

I have beena ble to load the Collection, iterate thru and determine the index/location of the TD containing the 'Wireless' tag.

Now I have that, I cannot work out the syntax to be used on the WebBrowser.Document to perform a .Click on that item?

VB Code:

WebBrowser1.Document.All.Item(3).body.innerHTML.getElementsByName("TD").Item(8).Click
