Click Button in Frame

[hilbertl3]

All,

I have a webpage that I am accessing using the Webbrowser control that has a frame at the top with about 5 buttons.
In code, I need to "find" the button that is labled "download" and then "click" it. Does anyone know how to go about this?

Thanks,

H

function findAndClick(btnValue)
{
  var btns = top.document.getElementsByTagName("button");
  var inputs = top.document.getElementsByTagName("input");
  for (var i=0; i<btns.length; i++)
  {
    if (btns[i].firstChild == btnValue)
    {
      btns[i].click();
      return;
    }
  }
  for (var i=0; i<inputs.length; i++)
  {
    if (inputs[i].type.toLowerCase() == "button" && inputs[i].value == btnValue)
    {
      inputs[i].click();
      return;
    }
  }
  alert(btnValue+" button not found!");
}

Chessbot, thanks for your reply. I need to do this in VB- sorry for not mentioning that. I will try to extract the general approach you're taking though and let you know how it goes. If you have a similar script in VB, however, please post.

Thanks.

Sorry-- don't know enough VB to do it.

Thanks all for your feedback.
Through much slugging away at MSDN, I was able to locate something that will work in VB:
