I have a script I am writing where I can execute a form on a website through a macro. I am able to open up internet explorer and pass all the variables correctly however when it comes time to submit, I am a bit lost.
this is the element on the website i want to click - it is a button titled "buy"
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Buy">
I have two problems:
1) i don't know how to properly reference this within vba 2) there is a button right next to it that will perform a sell (the exact opposite of what i want to do) and the element for that is:
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Sell">
Does anyone know appropriate code to hit the 'buy' button?
here is my code thus far:
Dim IE As Object
Set IE = New InternetExplorer
IE.Visible = True
IE.Navigate "somewebsite.com"
Do While IE.Busy: DoEvents: Loop
Do While IE.ReadyState <> 4: DoEvents: Loop
IE.Document.All("resourceoption").Value = "item"
IE.Document.All("amount").Value = 1
IE.Document.All("priceper").Value = 99
Do While IE.Busy: DoEvents: Loop
Do While IE.ReadyState <> 4: DoEvents: Loop
the above snippet performs the task needed
