I have a website that is IE only. I want to find a method of logging my into a site, submit some information ... and then click search.

I would like to pass a variable to this automation script.

For FireFox, I use a program called Chicken Foot. It works well.

Is there any AHK script that controls the browser as outlined ?

this is a fairly common question. you can probably make this script work. Please search the forum for javascript, bookmarklets, waiting for a page to load, IE4AHK, and related terms. Everything you need has been posted.

go to the website
wait a little bit
type login
Tab
password1
Tab
password2
Tab
Enter Key
Wait
hit Tab key 14 times [Enter] or go to another web page
Wait
Hit Tab key 3 times
enter User Number (I'd like this a variable)
Hit Tab 7 times.
Enter

What is the best script to do this with ?

AHK would be a good usage for This. It'd look something like this

Code:
usernumber = whatever
login = whatever
pass1 = whatever1
pass2  = whatever2
siteurl = http://www.yoursite.com
delay = 6000 ; in milisec (6000 = 6seconds)

Run %siteurl%
Sleep, %delay%
Send %login%
Send {tab}
Send %pass1%
Send {tab}
Send %pass2%
Send {tab}
Send {Enter}
Sleep, %delay%
Send {tab 14}
Send {Enter}
Sleep, %delay%
Send {tab 3}
Send %usernumber%
Send {tab 7}
Send {Enter}
Return


It could be more simplified, but I hope this helps. I recommend checking out the AutoScriptWriter that came with AHK. I generally do what I need to do once with that running, and go back and review. Def-useful program.

Thank you.

I got it to work. :D

Now I just need a way of pulling the UserNumber from a program I use !

Thank you.

;
; AutoHotkey Version: 1.x
; Language:       English
; Platform:       Win9x/NT

;
; Script Function:
;   Template script (you can customize this template by editing "ShellNew\Template.ahk" in your Windows folder)
;

#NoEnv ; Recommended for performance and compatibility with future AutoHotkey releases.
SendMode Input ; Recommended for new scripts due to its superior speed and reliability.

accoutnumber = 24601
login = mylogin
pass1 = mypass1
pass2  = mypass2
siteurl = http://www.corporateURL.com
delay = 3000 ; in milisec (6000 = 6seconds)

Is there a way pass a variable to this script ? Maybe via a command line ?

my script it called logintoaccountx.ahk

accountnumber is what I want to pass.

How might it work like this ...

c:\Program Files\AutoHotkey\Scripts\logintoaccountx.ahk 9894954934

Thank you :)

the command parameter is passed as a variable with the number of the parameter

Code:
if %0% = 1
  Msgbox, One parameter received - %1%
else
  Msgbox, No parameters (or too many) received! %0%

Add the following to be the firstline of your script:

Code:
AccountNumber = %1%

AccountNumber = %1% <--- syntax reminds me of batch files now that I think of it.

Thank you.

I was told I can't do it the command line :(

I have two ways to do it.

1) parse the results from this URL

http://127.0.0.1:8001/searchresults.html

I would look for "accountnumber: 1384411291DT" (and I would need to read the first 10 digits (not the letters, if they existed). 1384411291DT would vary depending on the account selected.

or

2) I need to read the number from a file.

The file looks like this .... and is located in this directory

c:\clients\account\www\searchresults.html

<html><body><h2>Search ...</h2>You need to write a <a href=http://groups.csail.mit.edu/uid/chickenfoot/>chickenfoot script</a> and trigger it on this page to run your custom searches. This also requires Firefox.<p/>Surname: Surname<br/>Given: SELMA<br/>(dd-mmm-yyyy) Dob1: 4-Nov-1926<br/>(dd/mm/yyyy) Dob2: 4/11/1926<br/>(mm/dd/yyyy) Dob3: 11/41926<br/>accountnumber: 1384411291DT<br/></body></html>

Ideas ?

Code:
FileRead, HTML, c:\clients\account\www\searchresults.html
SearchStr := "accountnumber: "
FoundPos  := InStr( HTML, SearchStr )
If FoundPos
   AccountNumber := SubStr( HTML, FoundPos+StrLen(SearchStr), 10 )
HTML :=

MsgBox, % AccountNumber

Works !

Code:
FileRead, HTML, c:\clients\account\www\searchresults.html
SearchStr := "accountnumber: "
FoundPos  := InStr( HTML, SearchStr )
If FoundPos
   AccountNumber := SubStr( HTML, FoundPos+StrLen(SearchStr), 10 )
;HTML :=
;MsgBox, % AccountNumber


I commented out the HTML and the Msgbox thing.
Should I close the If ?

You would know better! If searchresults.html was a 10MB file then the variable HTML will be using 10MB of memory. You cannot delete a variable once it has been created but can reset it to null, to conserve memory.

Not needed! That is one sweetest thing of AHK syntax. :)
