SRL Archive - OSR Help

Hi,

I have been working a web-browser script that requirest to click on links.

The script cliks on a link and then calls a procedure with waits and keypresses to eventually return to the start page and refresh. And go back to the main script.

So for every click it takes ~10 seconds to go back to the main page hunting for links. I realise a more efficient way to do this would be to open the new links in new browser tabs Which using FF is Control+Click or Opera is Shift+Control+Click. Once the links are open they can just stay open or for a more advanced idea, make a function to go around clicking on the "X" to close them.

I have searched around for the byte which is Shift or Control, thinking of having a procedure that would hold the key, use the SRLs mouse click function then release the key. Problem is that I can't find how to press these keys from the script. I did find isfunctionkeydown() but what I want is not the test but to do it "functionkeydown"? Anyone can point me to the right source?

Cheers

I think if you click the mouse wheel then it also opens up a new tab, so

ClickMouseMid(X, Y)

Could work, I'll edit my post in a sec with the actual answer ;).

Here:

Begin
  KeyDown(VK_Shift); //holds down shift
  KeyDown(VK_Control); //holds down control
  ClickMouse(X, Y, True); //clicks at 'x', 'y'.
  Wait(80); //waits for 80 msec
  KeyUp(VK_Shift);  //puts the key up
  KeyUp(VK_Control); //puts the key up
End.

Naum, can you tell us where you found that in case anyone else wants to know how to press other keys? Like is there a list somewhere that we can find that?

Scar: Ctrl+Space and type in VK_, standard lol.

oh I didn't know all those VK_ keys would show up in ctrl+space, and I use ctrl+space from time to time also. Thanks, I'm sure that'll come in handy for some people and probably even me one day.

Or do F1 and find the ASCII table

Perfect, thanks!
