Alright so here's my problem i've been trying to automate an IE session, i've got the logging into the website down just trying to input Into a Search field,
change a dropdown selection and click the Go button. I've been trying to use $ie.Document.getElementById("").value
= $variable and multiple variations of getElementByTagName, getElementByName, so on....with no luck, the html code has no id tag so i feel like that is making this more complicated than it needs to be, so below i will post the html code for the input box,
go button so on and some of the code i've been trying to use. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
HTML Code
