How to automate a Web-Login ? (Requires IE)
http://www.autohotke...p?p=67646#67646

I am posting here an experimental script I wrote for automating AHK-Forum Login.
Alter the first three variables correctly to get working results

UserName=ahkuser
PassWord=ahkuser
IExplore=C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
TempFile=%A_Temp%\AHK-F.htm

Right click & save this file: ahkloginhtml.txt.txt to see the actual HTML
I will post the text compression technique (used for encoding the HTML text) in a seperate topic.
Meanwhile, let me know if someone wants a similar auto-login script for GMail.

Hi there,

I really would like the other script you mentioned, to automate Gmail login. And ideally just something I could customize to work out login on anything (I assume there are tab indexes or mouse click locations or something custom to each).

I am brand new to AHK so still basically an idiot, but the web login and gmail login were early on my list of ideal things to start with. :-)

Thanks!

Edit by SKAN: Requires AHK_L

I really would like... ...to automate Gmail login.

Welcome to the forum RedCairo. You can use this;
GMailLogIn("[color=red]WriteYourUserNameHere[/color]","[color=red]WriteYourPasswordHere[/color]")

GMailLogIn(UserName,Password) {
	pwb := ComObjCreate( "InternetExplorer.Application") 
	pwb.Visible := True
	pwb.Navigate( "http://mail.google.com/mail")
	While, (pwb.ReadyState <> 4)
	Sleep, 100
	pwb.document.all.Email.value := UserName
	pwb.document.all.Passwd.value := Password
	pwb.document.all.signIn.click	
}

I have not used Opera.
The HTML template should be different for other sites.
I would not recommend this. COM is best suited for web automation.

Hello everyone! I'm newbie here. I really don't understand how this thing works but I really like the idea of automating a web-login.
Can anyone explain how this thing works please. Any help is highly appreciated. Thanks. :)

Basically it creates a fake html page with the needed stuff to log in to the forum and it sends the information to the autohotkeys forum. The forum doesn't know the difference because everything it needs to log you in is there.

The top post is very old and although it probably still works is is not the best method anymore, the one a few posts down http://www.autohotke...ie/#entry461378 is using the latest ahk (sometimes still referred to as ahk_l) and COM which should work a lot better PROVIDED you use Internet Explorer. COM is only for IE.

Looking at the url your site uses a frameset which makes it a bit harder, you need to download the IWB2 learner http://www.autohotke...r-iwebbrowser2/ to help you figure out what values to use. And then start reading here http://www.autohotke...l-for-webpages/

Heres a video of how you can make a AHk/COM "login script" work for new sites :) 



Loginname := "Your Login name here"
Password := "Your Password here"

URL := 

WB := ComObjCreate("InternetExplorer.Application")
WB.Visible := True
WB.Navigate(URL)
While wb.readyState != 4 || wb.document.readyState != "complete" || wb.busy ; wait for the page to load
   Sleep, 10
wb.document.getElementById("login").value := Loginname
wb.document.getElementById("password").value := Password
wb.document.getElementsByTagName("Button")[1].Click()
While wb.readyState != 4 || wb.document.readyState != "complete" || wb.busy ; wait for the page to load
   Sleep, 10
Msgbox, Something like that i hope!
return

Hope it helps

Morning.

I am not able to watch the video whilst at work, but I have searched and searched the web for a solution to a problem I am facing.

Please could somebody knock me up a script to log into the following website (or even just to auto type the name and password, the user could tick the box and accept)

https://online.espresso.co.uk/espresso/login/Authn/UserPassword


This is a for a behavioural school and they cannot type the long-winded username all the time, and it would be timewasting for the teacher to do it multiple times too.

wb.document.all.j_username.value := Loginname
wb.document.all.j_password.value := Password
wb.document.getElementByID("checkbox").checked := True
wb.document.all.loginForm.submit()


Hope it helps
