error sumbitting IE form (1 Viewer)

[cpampas]

Hello
I am downloading data from the the web, and sometimes I get an error, I suppose from the browser when clicking a button :

ie.Document.getElementById("btn-search-header").Click
the alert box error says : "error submitting form"

is there a way to disable this message error . If I manually click ok, in the alert box the code resumes just fine

Hi. Clicking a button on a web form usually/sometimes executes a function. If that's also the case for the website you're trying to manipulate, have you tried calling the function instead of using the Click method?

Hi, I am not sure the button executes a function. I guess not, because this is the html in that button element :

<button type="button" class="btn primary-button" id="btn-search-header">Pesquisa</button>

What about switching to something like:
ie.Document.Forms(1).Submit

huummm,
neither ie.Document.Forms(1).Submit or ie.Document.Forms(0).Submit
manage to submit the form.

I was wondering if it is posible to catch the alert, and right after sendkeys(enter), to resume the code
if you think this would be a posibility, how can I catch that alert ?
