In a function variables do not require percent signs unless you are using them dynamically (and literal text must be quoted):

Having a problem with an onchange + onkeyup event. Basically I am trying to put text into a field, which is working fine, and then clicking the Search button, which also works fine.

The problem comes with the field I am putting text into, is expecting you to be typing into the field. When you type into the field it then triggers the onchange / onkeyup events:

Try firing the onchange event like this:

I'm referring to this piece of code quoted in the first post in tanks thread from Sean:

What is the exact error message? And have you rebooted your computer and tried the code again?

Although a portion of that code is used in the iWeb_getWin function, that specific code doesn't really have much to do with this topic (other than tank linking to it in the old thread).

COM Error Notification

I tried rebooting, restarting Steam etc. this is perfectly reproducable and only happens when Steam is running. I should probably also say that I'm running Win7 32Bit. I use similar code that navigates active Explorer window, and I also see the error there. With that code it sometimes also happens when called at "unusual" places (that is, during a folder change, when closing explorer window, and I believe also sometimes in control panel, however, those happen a bit too infrequently to verify for sure what causes them).
Explorer windows that were started before Steam are not affected, probably because they are listed before the Steam IEFrame and my code breaks when it finds the correct window, so Hwnd is not called on the IEFrame of Steam.

Why do you need to retrieve the windows using the hWnd?

It looks like you've already covered this ground with Sean and I don't think anyone in this thread is more qualified to answer questions about this than he is. We can't answer every question about why some programs don't respond properly to a COM call, particularly when it's classified as an unknown error.

and yet it isnt even relavant to the active window the way your retreiving it
IEGet from the first page of this thread is the very best way to get the top most browser window
also passing a blank name to iweb_getwin will as well
