Powershell-单击HTML代码上的提交按钮

Question

I tried many different ways to click submit button on HTML code, but always got error.

<form action="abnormal-times.aspx" method="post">
Time out Minutes <input name="Minutes" style="width: 100px;" value="5"> Minutes.<br>
Time out Hours <input name="Minutes" style="width: 100px;" value="2"> Hours.
<input onclick="submit()" type="button" value="submit">

With my powershell code:

$ie = New-Object -com InternetExplorer.Application 
$ie.visible = $true
$ie.navigate("http://localhost.com")

while($ie.ReadyState -ne 4) { start-sleep -s 1 }

$Link = $ie.Document.getElementsByValue("submit")
$Link.click()

But always popup error.

Method invocation failed because [mshtml.HTMLDocumentClass] doesn't contain a method
 named 'getElementsByValue'.
At C:\temp\Untitled1.ps1:28 char:42
+ $Link = $ie.Document.getElementsByValue <<<< ("submit")
    + CategoryInfo          : InvalidOperation: (getElementsByValue:String) [], Run 
   timeException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : MethodNotFound

You cannot call a method on a null-valued expression.
At C:\temp\Untitled1.ps1:29 char:14
+ $Link.click <<<< ()
    + CategoryInfo          : InvalidOperation: (click:String) [], RuntimeException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : InvokeMethodOnNull

Now I changed into this:

$Link=$ie.Document.getElementsByTagName("button") | where-object {$_.type -eq "submit"}
$Link.click()

The error came out:

You cannot call a method on a null-valued expression.

Answer 1

The tag name of your button is input , and the type is button . Try this.

$Link=$ie.Document.getElementsByTagName("input") | where-object {$_.type -eq "button"}
$Link.click();
