This still has alot of work to go as to writing a script with frames and dealing with anything that isnt clickable
Hopefully you find it really helpful. basically what it does is allows you to click a web object and it then attempts to build a css selector and write a script using my iwebBrowser2 class.

this code is a prototype and should at this ALPHA stage only be used with great care.

If it helps you please feel free to help me out while i am out of work
Help me out

version .03 Alpha
Corrected tag siblings and other minor corrections

Code: Select all

Thanks tank, looks interesting.
guest3456, As I understood it, you can sort of record some action(s) like a click on a certain website element in a script - and then replay these actions by simply running this script (and including the iWebBrowser2 library).

Had only a quick go so far, and created a script with your WebWriter. It created a css selector, but there seemed to be some problem and code missing (although I made the iWebBrowser2 library available).

After glancing at the source, I think that at least this FileCopy command below should be replaced with FileAppend, as the following code from the first continuation section was completely missing from the created script:

Code: Select all

; [...]
 if !FileExist(scriptFile){
        FileCopy,
(
#Include, lib\iWebBrowser2.ahk
ie := new iWebBrowser2()
; [...]
Will have another go later!

It's fantastic that Tank came out with this type of recorder script for web browser automation.

This is very fine script! I wish I was able to use all it's potential!

P.s.: Here is my contribution. Modified function elementFromMouse() should enable work at any Zoom:

Code: Select all

elementFromMouse(){
    try
    If (hWnd := hWNDunderMouse(xpos, ypos)) && (pwin := $AccessibleObjectFromWindow(hWnd), Zm:=pwin.document.parentwindow.screen.deviceXDPI/96)
        && (pelt := pwin.document.elementFromPoint(xpos/Zm-(xorg:=pwin.screenLeft), ypos/Zm-(yorg:=pwin.screenTop)))
    While isFrame(pelt){
        ObjRelease(pwin), pwin :=  ComObj( 9, ComObjQuery( cw := pelt.contentwindow, $IHTMLWindow2 := "{332C4427-26CB-11D0-B483-00C04FD90119}", $IHTMLWindow2 ), 1 ), ObjRelease(cw)
        , xorg+=pelt.getBoundingClientRect.left, yorg+=pelt.getBoundingClientRect.top, ObjRelease(pelt), pelt := pwin.document.elementFromPoint(xpos-xorg, ypos-yorg)
    }
    ObjRelease(pwin)
    Return	pelt
}

I suggest to clarify and post the link for iWebBrowser2.ahk. There seems to be various versions and similarly named files and projects. Would be better if everyone were using the same files to test the program out.

No further news/reaction from Irving, TX ? :)

The code is dirty.
For example: here We should change uint to ptr and should not release pacc.
Also this is not correct DllCall("FreeLibrary", "str", "oleacc.dll").

Code: Select all

$AccessibleObjectFromWindow(hIESrv){
    IID_IAccessible := "{618736E0-3C3D-11CF-810C-00AA00389B71}", VarSetCapacity( GUID, 16, 0 ), DllCall("LoadLibrary", "str", "oleacc.dll")
    DllCall( "ole32\CLSIDFromString"
            , "wstr", IID_IAccessible
            , "ptr", &GUID )
    DllCall( "oleacc\AccessibleObjectFromWindow"
            , "Uint", hIESrv
            , "int", -4
            , "ptr", &GUID
            , "UintP", pacc)
    pacc:=ComObj( 9, pacc, 1 )
    pwin := ComObj( 9, ComObjQuery( pacc, $IHTMLWindow2 := "{332C4427-26CB-11D0-B483-00C04FD90119}", $IHTMLWindow2 ), 1 )
    ObjRelease( pacc ), DllCall("FreeLibrary", "str", "oleacc.dll")
    return  pwin
}

Return to “Scripts and Functions (v1)”
