I am trying to trap events from internet explorer eg. when user clicks on an html link - I need to get notified for that event.
After looking through the newgroups / internet and reading through various sections in programming python on win32 - I understand that this can be done using DispatchWithEvents. I have also referred to discussions on comp.lang.python http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.lang.python/browse_thread/thread/a3c502d06412a5f8/0ee3083e71316da7?q=dispatchwithevents&rnum=43#0ee3083e71316da7 and http://groups-beta.google.com/group/comp.lang.python/browse_thread/thread/1da0668794851296/5bcec1fda216c598?q=dispatchwithevents&rnum=19#5bcec1fda216c598 So far - none of the newgroups postings report that IE events were trapped successfully (at least I could not find any). However, there is enough evidence that it can be done. My problems at the moment: a) The examples use early binding. However, I cannot get Python makepy to generate the code to force makepy process at run time - since COM makepy utility that I invoke from python win 32 does not have any entry for internet explorer. I tried to find the CLSID for IE 3050F613-98B5-11CF-BB82-00AA00BDCE0B but I get an exception b) Also one of the examples suggest that following code should work > mod = EnsureModule(...) > class MyEvents(mod.IDocumentEvents): > # your methods here.... > handler = MyEvents(ie.document) > # handler should start recieving events. however, what CLSID is to be used in EnsureModule... . I tried with a few but I always get the error 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'IDocumentEvents' An example that 'works' will be very useful -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
