Return Javascript values from a hooked IE window
Hi, I am trying to return a JS var from a hooked IE window. so for example:
'# Get a new IE
Dim ie As New SHDocVw.InternetExplorerCl
wb = CType(ie, IWebBrowserApp)
wb.Visible = True
wb.Navigate("D:\index.htm"
'# Get an mshtml object
Dim HTMLDoc As mshtml.HTMLDocument= wb.Document
'# Get an IHTMLWindow2 from the frame sets
Dim f1 As mshtml.IHTMLWindow2 = CType(HTMLDoc.frames.item(
'# HERE IS WHERE I NEED HELP
dim oObj =f1.execScript("function myFunc() { var a = document.getElementById('D
What I need to do is have the value of a.innerHTML returned to the oOBJ and eventually into a string, I know that exeScript doesnt return a value, but this article here, someone has done so using a language I dont understand. Help please!

Hi Cem_Turk,
What you say is correct, but, if the html of the element DYN starts as 'abc' but is then changed dynamically via javascript to '123' then the VB solution returns the original html of the element, not the dynamic element.
The JS version returns the dynamic html, and that is what I need.

no it changes dynamically too, note that the code above not deals with viewsource of the page.. it access the page through DOM and you can modify anything as well as you can get anythings latest state. If innerHTML keeps changing you will get the latest value when you run the script. I can help more if you tell what exactly you are trying to do.

cem_turk, your are a genius, thanks. The problem I was having is I was trying to deal with an IHTMLWindow2 and I think that is a ByVal object, where as when I re-class f1.document as an mshtml.HTMLDocument I think I am getting a ByRef object i.e
Dim HTMLDoc As mshtml.HTMLDocument
HTMLDoc = f1.document
I get the dynamic code from the HtmlDOC object.
Thank you very much, wished I had asked sooner, spent a day on this yesterday!
