getElementById and getElementsByTagName are some of the methods which are exposed by Internet Explorer.

>This code is very interesting. I did not know the methods 'getElementById' and 'getElementsByTagName'. They are very useful.
>I already have a solution that finds the correct image in the cache.

>>>I want to download a captcha from google and present it in a vfp-form, but the captcha is not so easily isolated by automation. Interactively I can just right-click and can save the image, but I don't know how to do that automatically.
>>>Google-captcha's do not have normal URLs.
>>
>>The captcha will be an image element on the page and you can select it in the DOM. If it has an ID you can do:
>>
>>

>>loImg = oBrowser.document.getElementById("imgCatpcha")
>>lcUrl = loImg.src
>>
>>*** Retrieve the image and store to disk
>>Do wwHttp
>>loHttp = CREATEBOBJECT("wwHttp")
>>
>>*** Save output directly to file
>>loHttp.HttpGet(lcUrl,"","","c:\temp\captchaimage.jpg")
>>

>>
>>Then you can use the code Tore posted or some other mechanism like the wwHttp code I use above to retrieve the data using HTTP.
>>
>>If there's no ID on the image then you can select all images and loop through them to find what you're looking for by looking at the .src property:
>>
>>

>>loImgs = loDoc.getElementsByTagName("img")
>>FOR EACH loImg IN loImgs
>>   ? loImg.Src
>>ENDFOR
