Hello,

Please consider this sample:

Code: Select all Expand view RUN: #include "FiveWin.ch" FUNCTION Main() LOCAL oWnd, oActiveX DEFINE WINDOW oWnd @ 50, 10 ACTIVEX oActiveX OF oWnd ; SIZE 380, 170; PROGID "Shell.Explorer" @ 1,2 BUTTON "Fire 'Send' button" OF oWnd; SIZE 150,20; ACTION MsgInfo("Submit") ACTIVATE WINDOW oWnd; ON INIT oActiveX:Do("Navigate", "http://www.winfakt.be/form_test_1.htm" ) RETURN NIL

How can I let the BUTTON on the Window fire the "Send" button IN the ActiveX web page?

This is the source of form_test_1.htm is :

Code: Select all Expand view RUN: <html> <body> <form name="frm_test" action="form_test_2.asp" method="post"> Text: <textarea name="f_text"></textarea><br /> <input type="submit" name="f_submit" value="Send" /> </form> </body

form_test_1.asp is :

Code: Select all Expand view RUN: form_test_2.asp ---------------------- <hrtml> <body> Test OK!<br /><br /> Input was: <%= request.form("f_text") %> </body> </html>

Patrick,

You can directly Navigate2 to form_test_2.asp. No need to go through the HTML page.

Unless you want to show it, for some reason ? Surely we can fire the submit button if you need it.

Thanks for the hint, but if I do this, I don't receive the text input from the form in for_test_1.html

So I think we need to have something that fires the "Submit" button on the form. ;-)

Patrick,

> I don't receive the text input from the form in for_test_1.html

You send that info from your EXE :-)

You show a dialog box and request the info from the user, then you send that info to the ASP.

Unless you want to do it from the HTML :-)

The purpose of this sample is to show you that I want the button to be ON the dialog, and the input fields IN the HTML. ;-)

document:submit() (?)

by **Antonio Linares** » Wed Sep 10, 2008 4:51 pm

or:

document:formName:submit() (?)

I have not tested it. Just googled for it :-)

Well, I did not find a Submit() method for the activeX.

How do you do "document:formName:submit()" in the activeX?

oActiveX:Do("Submit") did not do the trick..

Patrick,

oActiveX:GetProp( "Document" ):Submit()

You have to review the Shell.Explorer docs ;-)

Gives this error:
Error Shell.Explorer/0 S_OK: FRM_TEST

The correct Javascript syntax is

Code: Select all Expand view RUN: document.formName.submit();

It lacks of formName. Maybe something like

oDoc = oActiveX:GetProp( "Document" ):Submit()
oDoc:GetProp( "formName" ):Submit()

?
