Subject: [Blind-Computing] Navigating a Web Site Using Visual Basic
I am trying to write a Visual Basic program to automate a procedure for a
friend. I need some advice or a reference on the HTML Document Object and
how to use it for this purpose.
Here is the procedure:
1. The user needs to go to the web site:
http://www.co.wayne.ny.us/RPT-TaxSearch/
2. The user needs to click on the "I Agree" button at the bottom of the
page.
3. This brings up a new web site with a search box.
4. The user then needs to enter and ID# in the search box and perform
the search.
5. The results come up with a table from which the user needs to get
some info and put it into an Excel document. This part I can do if I can
get over doing the first few steps of getting to this page and performing
the search.
Anyway, here is some of the code I am using:
Sub AcquireData(ByVal browser As WebBrowser)
' the parameter browser has already been set up to connect to the URL
which
contains the "I Agree" button
' set up the document object for the web page
Dim doc As System.Windows.Forms.HtmlDocument
' use the HTMLElement object if necessary
Dim Element As System.Windows.Forms.HtmlElement
doc = browser.Document
' now, here is where I need the help:
' 1. Find the "I Agree" button on the page
' click on the "I Agree" button to bring up the search page
' find the search field for the ID# on the new page
' enter the search ID# (which my application acquires in another
subroutine)
' Once the new page comes up, I have the code to process the table on
the page and deal with the data
Call ProcessTable( browser )
End sub
Thanks for any help, suggestions, or references. Since this is rather a
specialized topic, you can reply to me off list at:
