Convert code to open Firefox instead of Internet Explorer - autoit

How do I change Internet Explorer to Firefox?
#include <IE.au3>
Func _CreateIE()
If Not IsObj($oIE) Or Not ProcessExists("iexplore.exe") Then
$oIE = _IECreate($sURL, 0)
EndIf
EndFunc ;==>_CreateIE

To just open the Firefox browser the following native AutoIt code suffices:
local $url="www.google.com"
$off=Run(#ProgramFilesDir & "\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe " & $url, "", #SW_MAXIMIZE)
For full support you'll need the user defined function FF.au3, which in turn requires the add-on mozrepl.
Don't forget to start MozRepl.
FF-menu: Extras/Menu or check there "Activate on startup".
Then you can do:
#Include <FF.au3>
_FFStart([$sURL = "about:blank"[, $sProfile = "default"[, $iMode = 1[, $bHide = False[, $IP = "127.0.0.1"[, $iPort = 4242]]]]]])

RF-AutoIT: Cant upload files in Chrome

I am trying to create a common exe for 3 browser based file upload using below code.
IE (Choose File to Upload),
Chrome (Open),
Firefox (File Upload)
This is working for IE but not for Chrome and FireFox. There is no error but its not showing given file along with path.
I will be using this .exe in my Robot Framework script.
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>
SelectWindowBasedOnTitle()
Func SelectWindowBasedOnTitle()
$winList = WinList()
$wTitle = CheckWindows($winList)
IF $wTitle == "Choose File to Upload" Then
IE()
ElseIf $wTitle == "Open" Then
Chrome()
Else
FireFox()
EndIf
EndFunc
Func CheckWindows($aArray)
For $i = 1 To Ubound($aArray) - 1
If WinActive($aArray[$i][1]) Then $wTitle= $aArray[$i][0] ;MsgBox(0, "Window Check", $aArray[$i][0] & " is active.")
Next
Return $wTitle
EndFunc
Func Example()
$wText = WinGetText("[ACTIVE]")

AutoIt Firefox _FFClick doesn't work on button? (FF.au3)

Using the firefox plugin ("ff-au3") for AutoIt, how do I click a button?
Here is the HTML of the item I'd like to click:
<input accesskey="s" class="aui-button" id="login-form-submit" name="login" title="Press Alt+s to submit this form" type="submit" value="Log In">
And here is the code snippet to click the button:
;Click the "Log In" button, id is "login-form-submit"
_FFClick("login-form-submit", "id")
At this point, my script is already connected to firefox, already on the page I need, and everything else works (except for this click part!)
Here is the error I get back:
_FFClick ==> No match: $sElement: FFau3.WCD.getElementById('login-form-submit')
Also, this works when I manually run it on the page using a javascript console:
document.getElementById("login-form-submit")
And here is the API for the plugin: http://english.documentation.ff-au3.thorsten-willert.de/ff_functions/_FFClick.php
Anyone see anything I'm doing wrong?
Versions:
Firefox 44.0.1
AutoIt v3.3.14.2
FF V0.6.0.1b-15.au3 (Firefox plugin)
MozRepl v.1.1.2
SciTE-Lite v. 3.5.4
Well this didn't get much traffic but I found the solution! Pretty simple... I disconnected from firefox before executing the click!
When using firefox, you first need to open the firefox exe with the "Run" command, then you need to connect to firefox using the "_FFConnect" command. Next you can start clicking elements. Once you're done, disconnect from firefox using the "ProcessClose" command. The problem I was running into was I connected to firefox, then disconnected immediately, then I tried clicking. So, I made sure I disconnected after I did the clicking...
Working solution: myScript.au3 (See the "LogIn" function at the bottom)
#include <Constants.au3>
#include <MsgBoxConstants.au3>
#include <File.au3>
#include <EventLog.au3>
#include <FF V0.6.0.1b-15.au3> ;FireFox

Click on the outlook calendar by searching the calendar Image (_ImageSearch)

I am using Imagesearch.au3 to search the calendar image on outlook . Below is the code .
Created a new folder --> ImageSearch.au3 , ImageSearchDLL.dll , and the screenshot of the calendar is placed
#include <ImageSearch.au3>
$x=0
$y=0
start()
while 1
sleep(1000)
WEnd
Func Start()
while 1
$result = _ImageSearch("cal.png",1,$x,$y,0)
if $result=1 Then
ConsoleWrite("Sucesfull")
MouseMove($x,$y,10)
Else
ConsoleWrite("Img not found")
EndIf
WEnd
EndFunc
Problem : Throws an error message
"C:\Users...\Desktop\AutoIT\New folder\img\ImageSearch.au3" (44) : ==> Subscript used on non-accessible variable.:
if $result[0]="0" then return 0
if $result^ ERROR
The dll will not load while running as a script. I'm not sure why but it seems others have the same problem. I was able to compile the script as a 64 bit application and then the application loaded the DLL. After changing the tolerance, I was able to find the image.
Also, I would rewrite your code. You have two infinite while loops for no reason. I added a sleep to the remain while loop. I would increase the tolerance.
#include <ImageSearch.au3>
start()
Func Start()
while 1
$x=0
$y=0
$result = _ImageSearch("cal.png",1,$x,$y,20)
if $result=1 Then
MsgBox(0,"Found Image","moving mouse")
MouseMove($x,$y,10)
Else
MsgBox(0,"Img not found","not found")
EndIf
sleep(10000)
WEnd
EndFunc
I tested with the 64bit imagesearch located at http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/topic/148005-imagesearch-usage-explanation/page-2

RDP session launch applications

I have opened an RDP session using AutoIt. Here is the code:
$host = "" ; <---- IP
$hGUI = GUICreate("Terminal Serveur", 952, 675, -1, -1, $WS_OVERLAPPEDWINDOW + $WS_CLIPSIBLINGS + $WS_CLIPCHILDREN)
$oRDP = ObjCreate("MsTscAx.MsTscAx.2")
$oRDP_Ctrl = GUICtrlCreateObj($oRDP, 64, 44, 800, 600)
GUICtrlSetResizing(-1, $GUI_DOCKALL)
GUICtrlSetStyle($oRDP_Ctrl , $WS_VISIBLE)
$oRDP.DesktopWidth = 800
$oRDP.DesktopHeight = 600
$oRDP.Fullscreen = False
$oRDP.ColorDepth = 16
$oRDP.AdvancedSettings3.SmartSizing = True
$oRDP.Server = $host
$oRDP.UserName = "" ; <--- Username
$oRDP.Domain = ""
$oRDP.AdvancedSettings2.ClearTextPassword = "" ; <--- Password
$oRDP.ConnectingText = "Connecting to " & $host
$oRDP.DisconnectedText = "Disconnected from " & $host
$oRDP.StartConnected = True
$oRDP.Connect()
$oShel = ObjCreate("shell.application")
$oShel_Ctrl = GUICtrlCreateObj($oShel, 64, 44, 800, 600)
GUICtrlSetStyle($oShel_Ctrl , $WS_VISIBLE)
GUISetState(#SW_SHOW, $hGUI)
Send ("#r") ; !!
While 1
$nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
Switch $nMsg
Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
$oRDP.Disconnect()
Exit
EndSwitch
WEnd
Now, I want to launch an application in the RDP session. I tried " Send(#r) " in order to send the path with a function like SendKeys but this command is execute on my computer and not on the remote computer.
How can I do please?
Send alt + home. This open the windows search in the rdp session, which you can then send it text e.g. send("notepad")
send({enter})
Update:
A much simpler alternative:
Change the Remote Desktop Connection Settings (not in the control
code, but in the usual windows shorcut. But it seems that could be done in the AutoIt code with the keyboardhook setting keyboardhook setting ) .
Look for the Options button, in the window when launching remote desktop.
On the Local Resources Tab select Windows key combinations are applied in full-screen mode only.
Change this line in your code:
$oRDP.Fullscreen = True
Include a pause to ensure the control has been loaded
Sleep(5000)
Send ("#r")
Previous answer:
Let my suggest a workaround not very 'elegant' but should work (tested ok):
In the remote desktop make a shorcut to the Windows Virtual Keyword (On-Screen Keyboard or OSK)
Find the position of the shorcut icon
In your code send a double click at this position to start the on-screen keyboard
Then send clicks to the positions of the desired keys
Something like this:
Sleep(5000)
MouseClick("left",512,191,2) ;start virtual keyword
Sleep(1000)
MouseClick("left",553,807,1) ;click
Sleep(100)
MouseClick("left",633,740,1)
Sleep(1000)
Send("notepad")
Sleep(1000)
Send("{ENTER}")
(Aside note: For any executable with a shortcut on the remote desktop simply send double click, without the need of the virtual keyboard)

autoit- How to minimize windows open on ff.au3?

Here my code:
#Include <FF.au3>
_FFStart()
If _FFIsConnected() Then
$sStringToSearch = "www.google.com"
sleep (2000)
If _FFSearch($sStringToSearch) Then
; add a new tab with an URL
_FFWindowOpen("http://ff-au3-example.thorsten-willert.de/")
Sleep(1000)
_FFWindowOpen("www.msn.com")
Sleep(1000)
_FFWindowOpen("www.yahoo.com")
Sleep(1000)
_FFWindowOpen("google.com")
EndIf
Else
EndIf
According to the script, when I visit google, it would open the first link followed by the other links; now how do I have the windows minimized once they are open.
Also I keep getting ErrorstdOut any solutions to this?
Try WinSetState ( "title", "text", flag )
Here is the link for the api: http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/functions/WinSetState.htm
A sample is :
WinSetState("Calculator", "", #SW_MINIMIZE )
