Hi,

I am in the process of automating a process to fill up a website. With an Excel Macro, once I log into the website, insert a value in the required textbox and click the button, a website Message Box comes up with an alert asking me to confirm - Are you sure to update the value?

The execution of the macro stops at that level, resulting in no further execution of the macro.

On searching for the solution, I found out that a JavaScript function, the function which is executed on confirmation of the message box, should be called from macro instead of clicking the original button on the webpage.

I would like to have help in writing the code to call JavaScript function in Excel Macro.

Following is the HTML code from the view source page of the webpage.

<code id="questionViewInlineCode10-28269292-1" style="font-family: Courier, monospace; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; width: auto; zoom: 1; white-space: pre;">
Code:
******** type="text/javascript">    $('#reloadButton').click(function () {        $(this).text(            $(this).attr('name')        ).attr('disabled', 'disabled');        ****************.href = ****************.href.replace(/#.*$/, '');    });    SignalConsumer = function () {};    SignalConsumer.prototype = new TraderSettingsTool();    SignalConsumer.prototype.mySummaryPage = 'https://kvinvest.com/month/?action=template&tid=my_status';    SignalConsumer.prototype.isShowWaiver = 0;    SignalConsumer.prototype.amountPrecision = 1;       SignalConsumer.prototype._elements = {        "trading": {            "popup": $('#ssc-trading-popup'),            "amount": $('#ssc-trading-amount'),            "trade": $('#ssc-trading-trade'),            "provides": $('#ssc-trading-provides')        },        "slippage": {            "popup": $('#ssc-slippage-popup')        },        "provider": {            "popup": $('#ssc-provider-popup')        },        "consumers":{           "holder":   $('#ssc-consumers-holder'),           "template": $('#ssc-consumers-template'),           "form":     $('#ssc-consumers-form')        },        "subscribe": {            "server": $('#ssc-subscribe-server'),            "apply":  $('#ssc-subscribe-apply'),            "loader": $('#ssc-subscribe-loader'),            "info":   $('#ssc-subscribe-info'),            "form":   $('#ssc-subscribe-form'),            "description":   $('#ssc-subscribe-description')        },        "activate": {            "form": $('#ssc-activate-form'),            "slippage": $('#ssc-activate-slippage'),            "amount": $('#ssc-activate-amount'),            "popup": $('#ssc-activate-popup'),            "apply": $('#ssc-activate-apply'),            "cancel": $('#ssc-activate-cancel'),            "agree": $('#ssc-activate-agree'),            "sll": $('#ssc-activate-sll-value'),            "loader": $('#ssc-activate-sll-loader'),            "redirect": $('#ssc-activate-redirect')        },        "waiver": {            "popup": $('#ssc-waiver-popup'),            "agree": $('#ssc-waiver-agree'),            "apply": $('#ssc-waiver-apply'),            "subscribe": $('#ssc-waiver-subscribe')        },        "history": {            "log": $('#ssc-history-log')        }    };    SignalConsumer.prototype.bindEvents = function () {        var self = this;        this._elements.subscribe.form.find('form').submit(function () {            return false;        });// I THINK BELOW IS THE MESSAGE BOX POP UP        this._elements.subscribe.apply.click(function () {            if(!confirm('Are you sure to update?')){                return false;            }            self.subscribeToServer();            return false;        });        // On show history popup        this._elements.history.log.click(function () {            self.loadHistoryLog();            return false;        });        // --- ACTIVATION LOGIC ---        this._elements.activate.apply.click(function () {            self.applyActivateServer();            return false;        });        this._elements.activate.agree.change(function () {            var disabled = $(this).is(':checked') ? '' : 'disabled';            self._elements.activate.apply.attr('disabled', disabled);        });        this._elements.activate.cancel.click(function () {            self.hidePopUp();            return false;        });        this._elements.activate.redirect.click(function () {            self.hidePopUp();        });
