Hi all,

I have some code that is sending keys to some input file boxes (this is a work around since you cannot change file input values) (WebBrowser control by the way).... all is well except sendkeys cannot keep up with the next command to click the submit button...

My question is , how do i slow down the next step so sendkeys can catch up... I have tried a timer with no success!!

here is what i have... ( // tabbing through to get to the file inputs)

for (int a =0; a<6; a++)

SendKeys.Send("{tab}");

SendKeys.Send(imagebox1.Text);

for (int a = 0; a < 2; a++)

SendKeys.Send("{tab}");

SendKeys.Send(imagebox2.Text);

for (int a = 0; a < 2; a++)

SendKeys.Send("{tab}");

SendKeys.Send(imagebox3.Text);

for (int a = 0; a < 2; a++)

SendKeys.Send("{tab}");

SendKeys.Send(imagebox4.Text);

// right here is where my problem is .. if i comment out chkElem.InvokeMember("click") then send keys is ok and the file inputs populate.. otherwise it submits the form without catching up..

HtmlElement chkElem = doc.GetElementById("submit");

chkElem.InvokeMember("click");

I must be missing something because it is still not waiting...

Even using this simple code, I get my message box before the field populates .. I press ok at the prompt and then it populates the field with "Hello"

SendKeys.Send("{tab}"); // tabs to my field

SendKeys.SendWait("Hello"); // does not wait!

MessageBox.Show("done"); //prompts message box, I hit ok, then it populates my field ??

Am I missing something? A namespace maybe?

thanks...

Bingo!! that worked with the timer!

Hrmmm I tried that last night with no avail! Of course I changed a bunch of code today, that was probably messing it up...

thanks nobugz
