If you try the code I posted earlier (below) in the VFP window you
should get hints for the DOM pem's.
GetElementByTagName() should return a list, it may also be possible to
check the Type attribute of each element.
The DOM is a mess imho - good luck.

LOCAL loIE as InternetExplorer.Application
LOCAL oDoc as InternetExplorer.Document
LOCAL oFm as html.form
loIE = CREATEOBJECT("InternetExplorer.Application")
? loIE.Navigate2("http://www.universalthread.com";)
oDoc = loIE.Document
oFm = oDoc.getElementById("Form1")
* oUID = oFm.getelementsbyname("Username") && nope
oUID = oDoc.getelementsbyname("Username") && OK - but it returns a
list - so:
oUID1 = oUID.item(0)
?oUid1.value && empty
oUid1.value = "fooYou"
?oUid1.value && fooYou
* oPW = oFm.getelementsbyname("Password") && nope
oPW = oDoc.getelementsbyname("Password") && OK - but ...
oPW1 = oPW.item(0)
?oPW1.value && empty
oPW1.value='pw'
?oPW1.value && pw
loIE.Visible = .T. && like I told ya'
?oFm.submit && NO
?oFm.submit() &&
oFm.submit() && WAY
oDoc.getElementById('Form1').submit() &&
oDoc.getElementById('Form1').submit &&
oFm = oDoc.getElementById("Form1") && JOSE
oFm.submit &&
loIE.Quit
CLOSE ALL
CLEAR ALL
RELEASE ALL
CLEAR

I am trying to come up with code that can look at an HTML document and
produce a list of fields that will accept data, buttons and check boxes
that can be clicked, and dropdowns that can have a value selected.
I see references to XML as a similar scheme to DOM and wonder if they talk
to each other. I've never used the XML capabilities in VFP so that
probably compounds my confusion.
The IDE seems to know something about the DOM as entering a dot after the
name of an object created from Internet Explorer Automation yields a
dropdown list of suggestions. After selecting document, for example,
entering another dot gives the same list of suggestions so I've not figured
out how to tell what combinations are compatible.
If one attempts to examine a DOM object via display memory, VFP shows it as
a local object with "UNKNOWN TYPE dom" Thus it appears to recognize it as
Document Object Model but declares it to be an unknown type.
Any code, suggestions, or encouragement will be welcome!
