Hello, i don't know how to press the button with innertext "Selecionar archivo" (in red color) it is a button to open a new window to select a file from computer to upload

This form it is into a iframe:

HTML:
<form name="ficheroForm" method="POST" action="/house/loadfile.do" enctype="multipart/form-data">
		
		//............more code........

<div class="uploader">
<input type="file" name="fichero" size="80%" value="" class="form1" style="opacity: 0; ">
<span class="filename">Seleccionar archivo</span>
[B][COLOR="Red"]<span class="action">Examinar</span>[/COLOR][/B]

</div>


  //.....more code.....

<label><div class="checker"><span>
<input type="checkbox" name="confirmacion" value="true" style="border-top-width: 0px; border-right-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; border-style: initial; border-color: initial; border-image: initial; opacity: 0; ">
</span></div> Recibir confirmación vía correo electrónico</label>
									

<div class="button">
<span>Cargar fichero<button *******="aceptar();return false;" style="opacity: 0; ">Cargar fichero</button>
</span></div>


i have a code that go to the web, login with username and password, go to the page for load data (the code above it is embebed into a iframe)

I can click the button with tag "button" with this code:
But the other button don't have property "*******" instead when i pressed with the mouse one window of the OS (not for navigate) open to get the file in my computer

Code:
Set iDoc = ie.Document.frames("curro").Document

Dim boton As Object
        For Each boton In iDoc.getElementsByTagName("button")
             boton.Click      
        Next

And this is the code javascript into the form:


Code:
******** language="JavaScript">
	  
	  function aceptar(){ 
	    var form = document.forms[0];
	    if (form.fichero.value == "") {
	    	mensaje = 'Debe introducir un fichero';
            alert(mensaje);
            form.fichero.focus();
            return false;
	    } else {
		  form.action="cargaFichero.do";    
	      form.submit();
	      cargandoImg();
	    }
	  }
	  
	   function envioFichero(){ 
	    var form = document.forms[0];
	    form.action="cargaFichero.do";    
	    form.submit();
	    cargando();
	  }

	function setFileNameFromPath(path){
		document.forms[0].elements['filename'].value = value = path.substr(path.lastIndexOf('\\') + 1);
		//var oas = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
		//var d = document.a.b.value;
		//var e = oas.getFile(d);
		//var f = e.size;
		//alert(f + " bytes");
	}  

*********>



ie.Navigate ("javascript:envioFichero();") code don't work because the javascript code it is into a iframe and i try with

Set iDoc = ie.Document.frames("curro").Document
ie.iDoc.Navigate ("javascript:envioFichero();") and don' work

Hi & Welcome to the Board!

May be:
ie.Document.parentWindow.execScript "aceptar();", "JScript"

Hello Vladimir, thanks for your answer, it works perfectly with little change:

iDoc.parentWindow.execScript "aceptar(path);", "JavaScript"

Because
iDoc = ie.Document.frames("the_name_of_the_iframe").Document


But now i have a problem, i need pass file Path location before execSript "aceptar() because if not the instruction "if (form.file1.value == "") it is true and logically say "you must put a file"

when i do it with the mouse:

1. i click in the button:
HTML:
<span class="action">Explore</span>

2. this button open the tipical window browser files of the windows system

3. I select a valid file and press open

4.With IE 8 browser The totaly file path its show in the box:
HTML:
<span class="filename">Select file</span>
curious note: But with google chrome browser only show the name of file

5. then i click the button :
HTML:
<div class="button">
<span>Load File<button o n c l i c k ="aceptar();return false;" style="opacity: 0; ">load file</button>
</span></div>

5. i have finished


How can i do it with Vba code?

The form it is:
HTML:
<form name="nameForm" method="POST" action="/home/loadFile.do" enctype="multipart/form-data">

The uploader it is:
HTML:
<div class="uploader">
<input type="file" name="file1" size="80%" value="" class="form1" style="opacity: 0; ">
<span class="filename">Select file</span>
<span class="action">Explore</span></div>

The javascript code i can see it is:
Code:
******** language="JavaScript">
	  
	  function aceptar(){ 
	    var form = document.forms[0];
	    if (form.file1.value == "") {
	    	message = 'you must put a file';
            alert(message);
            form.file1.focus();
            return false;
	    } else {
		  form.action="loadfile.do";    
	      form.submit();
	      loadingImg();
	    }
	  }
	  
	   function sendfile(){ 
	    var form = document.forms[0];
	    form.action="loadfile.do";    
	    form.submit();
	    loading();
	  }

	function setFileNameFromPath(path){
		document.forms[0].elements['filename'].value = value = path.substr(path.lastIndexOf('\\') + 1);
		//var oas = new ActiveXObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject");
		//var d = document.a.b.value;
		//var e = oas.getFile(d);
		//var f = e.size;
		//alert(f + " bytes");
	}  

*********>



i try:

iDoc.forms(0).file1.Focus this code works fine and set the focus here :
HTML:
<span class="filename">select file</span>

but it is not allowed to write in, at least in IE 8 (i have the path in the clipboard)

i try:

iDoc.forms(0).file1.value = "C:\Users\................l\AAAAAAAA.999" but don't work (not support this property or method)

also try:

iDoc.parentWindow.execScript "setFileNameFromPath("C:\Users\................l\AAAAAAAA.999");", "JavaScript"

but don't work (runtime error)


maybe if i can open the browser window and paste the path, then sendkey "enter" and call javascript aceptar() but.....

How can i press the button to open the browser file window if there is not envent o n c l i k, there is no name only class= "action"

here is the button:
HTML:
<span class="action">Explore</span>

Thanks Vladimir and happy new year!!!

Hello Vladimir, thanks for your answer, it works perfectly with little change:
Glad you've got it working.

But now i have a problem, i need pass file Path location before execSript "aceptar()
It’s hardly to suggest something without debugging (access to web page) possibility.
BTW, setting value for Input Type="File" element is blocked by JavaScrip security.
And style="opacity: 0;" means invisible field - the symptom of the fake element using.

At least in the line below there is a syntax error:
also try:

iDoc.parentWindow.execScript "setFileNameFromPath("C:\Users\................l\AAAAAAAA.999");", "JavaScript"
The doubling of internal quotes (not sure about single quotes) for the path name is required.
