Thanks John, I'll set up some tests over the weekend. 
I've also been doing some tests with API calls to Wininet

I have found this to work when the body object doesn't appear in the dom
of
IE9 and you are trying to get to innertext or innerhtml.

lctext=oie.Document.body
IF ISNULL(lctext)
lctext=OIE.Application.Document.firstChild
ENDIF

Subject: Automate Internet Explorer 9 with fox 8

Hi all

 

I've got some simple code to automate IE, navigate to a URL and download
the page as text. 

This code works fine in IE8 

 

oIE=createobject("InternetExplorer.Application")

oIE.Navigate("http://www.microsoft.com";)

do while oIE.ReadyState<>4

  Inkey(1)

Enddo

? oIE.Document.Body.InnerText

 

The compiled application fails with "Body is not an object" on Windows 7
and IE9.

 

If I run this line by in the command window Intellisense tells me there
is no body although I can just ignore Intellisense and ask for the body.
I can then see its InnerText.

Intellisense also fails in IE8/WinXP but the compiled application works
fine.

 

Has any come across this one please because it is driving me nuts.

 

Cheers

Graham
