Login on Internet Explorer website

[Guest]

Hi,

I'm trying to automate a login and file download process. This occurs over the web.

I have the code that opens Internet Explorer and navigates to the website. The first page that comes up is a login page. My goal is to have c# add the user name and password to the appropriate text boxes. After that I would like c# to simulate button clicks (I can get the actual url if need be) to select and download the appropriate file.

Can someone point me in the right direction for coding this?

Thanks,
Jeff

Does this need to be done using C# or ASP/.NET I guess you should use some
flash type thing to do this .. I am getting the guide with this "I would
like c# to simulate button clicks :"

Hi Jeff,

This can be done with the DOM, something like you'd do it from JavaScript
code within the Web page. Get the Window object (IHTMLWindow[2, 3, 4]) from
the IE instance, then query for the window's Document (IHTMLDocument[2, 3,
4, 5]]) , and then use the DOM as you would do that from JavaScript (the
code snippet below is rather a pseudo-code than a working C# code):

theDocument.all["userName"].text = "JohnDoe"
theDocument.all["password"].text = "password"
theDocument.forms[0].submit();
