AutoHotkey Community

@ fongmark
As this thread is a tutorial on COM and AHK being used with IE and Gui Browser objects I have the following comments

First of all Bravo !!!!

Please if you can edit your post and include links to the required files. This thread is for Newbs and we want to make it easy to use the script as possible

I see that you did a pretty fair job of commenting code. Keeping in mind that this is a tutorial it would be very nice if you could break down what your doing before exposing the entire script set for those who might also try to do similar things
For instance where can one learn more about the available functions from LoadCursor


While I would have perfered using COM instead of CoHelper and IEControl this essentially complies with the philosiphy of this thread so i thank you for contributing. I have wondered since the origional posting if any one even bothered

Again if any part of my reply sounds un greatful please excuse. I am glad someone bothered to contribute. and thank you for commenting your code. If you dont object I may post a follow up and replace the IEControl and CoHelper with COM equivilence just for the comparison

Hello,
I have one technical question, one conceptual question and one contribution.

1) Tecnical question
I was not success in my attempt to adapt one of several technics published in this topic to make possible the launch of ie4AHK with an url as parameter:
for instance run ie4AHK www.google.com
I know that it's possible but I could n't.
Is someone has a complete code to try ?

2) conceptual question : security
What is the security of the browser?

a: proxy: is the system could bypass the proxy of a company or a school
b: child: is it possible to make definitive the option concerning child protection
c: password, ssl : are there secure? how
d: privacy: is it secure? how.

3) 32 bits --> 64 bits : one argument
I have a "love at first sight" for the job and the quality of this community.
And I imagine to attempt the development of a very very big program automatically generated from the base of our (very big) functional ontology. Then billions of variable (often inactive), threads, methods, subroutine and so on. This remark was only an argue to suggest the availability of a 64 bits kernet for AutoHotkey.

With a sincere admiration for your work,

With a sincere admiration for your work,

this isnt an ie4ahk thread daononlyfreeze uses a dll for the browser. I cannot vouch for its com availability.
but perhaps you might show the code your trying there may be things not approached correctly

a: I will not aid in answering questions about bypassing security
b:I suppose anything is possible if your wanting to make a filter for browsing while you could make it very functional but as ahk can easily be disabled by the user i recommend a better product just get an off the shelf tool at your local electronics superstore.
Etheir way i do not have the interest or the time to write thousands of lines of code for a product aimed at security that would inevitably be so easily disabled
I will not claim to be an expert on SSl your best bet is to google it. I will say this. No security is un breechable but SSL is a successfull standard because ir requires serious skill to bypass and there for limits targets to multimillion dollar organizations with a known exposed risk.
I recall the answer my college MCSE instructer gave. If you truly dont want the world to know dont connect it to a network. Sorry but security is realative to who is trying to break it and the effective use of the end user of said security products
on number 3 please rephrase to a coherent question i simply dont understand
you ask me to compare 32 bit with 64 bit something i can not guess or read minds. then you go on to tell a story about a dog and a cat living in harmony. Please focus the statment that follows should have specific relavent data that makes your question more concise. I am not sure how billions ov variables is related to 32 bit vs 64 bit

Thanks for the post I am sorry i cant be of more help but lets be clear
I can help you fix specific problems if you post your code and I have access to the site in question.

I will not ever help someone with security questions. they are far to important to be asked and answered anonomously over the internet. Take a class or consult a reputable professional

I am not going to get into discussions over the various technologies that make up networking and network requests. I am neither an expert nor willing to waste yours or any one elses time.

That said i do quite well understand HTML Javascript VBScript XML CSS etc

i know a good deal about how to automate data input and collections from web sites that support the afore mentioned technologies. and i know a bit about web servers and server side programing languages such as sql asp and php but i wont get into QA on the later

So if you have specific code your trying to automate data collected or sent to a web page that uses HTML Javascript VBScript XML CSS feel free to post your code and a link i can get to with the actual content and i will be happy to help

everything else no

first, THNX for this super tutorial!!!
2nd...I need help with this...im using the same code you posted, i edited the code a little bit... and i dont know why but i cant use the tab keystroke and i only want to select any name of a list like 1/2 Prince on the top list of the page automatically




the html of the page looks like this

first of all this site itself pisses me off

second why after reading the tutprial are you sending key strokes

third your keystrokes dont work in IE either what made you think they would work in the browser object

I am tempted to let your lack of effort cause you pain but folks once helped me in my ignorance too

don't you like Manga?


i tried to let you know what i want in the stupiest way...


really?.... it kinda worked on another code i tried....like 2 minutes ago



Yesterday was my first time using COM(you can guest what about knowing this page),im new on ahk and kinda lazy, btw i tried to use another way, i tested it once and didnt work so ill try to check it later... of course ill not write anything else because you helped me ...




it worked using your code now i need something to go to the page of the selected item lol...

When the page is updating itself via AJAX, then the above is not enough. For example the page has a subform and a button, that adds items to a grid.

I modified the loop as follows and it seems to work. Any suggestions are welcome!

Thanks but done may or may not be the resulting text and it may or may not work
Since this is the exception not the rule we should be aware that the idea is to look for something unique to the page loading such as specific elements or legnth property of the all collection when readystate isnt enuff

I need a hand with this whole thing. I understand alot, but I don't understand even more.

I am currently written a script that does multiple things. One of the things is playing a java based, multiplayer, online game.

I had it running fine. You could alt-tab and come back to the game later and it would work. However, since I got it to work I began to code other areas of the script.

All of the new things added had nothing to do with the embeded IE. Was a few animated buttons using SKAN's examples in Tips N Tricks that would do things like hide the taskbar, etc.

Now, I can load a web page through the GUI no problem. I can alt-tab, switch windows and come back to the GUI later with no problems. However, if I switch to another window when the GUI has any form of java on it, AHK no longer responds. I can not for the life of me figure this out. I can't even activate a window owned by the same AHK process!

I was able to do it before (Change windows even if the embed IE window had java on it)... Now for some reason it won't. Any ideas?

Sorry for the double post, but even when I use a few other scripts I've found here on the forums, you can switch windows fine unless it's got Java on the embedded IE.

For the curious, it's RuneScape.

Try it yourself. Go to RuneScape.Com (In your embedded IEs), click either of the "Click here to play". Let it load completely. Switch to another window, then switch back to the GUI with RuneScape in it. It won't respond.

Even if you click "Log In". If you let that Java applet load, switch windows, it becomes unresponsive. Or is it just my computer for some reason?

Odd how it worked fine then stopped. Even stranger how it won't work in the other scripts on the forums either. :S.
