simulate a Users’ mouse actions

13 New Member
Hi,

Is there anyway to simulate a Users’ mouse actions using coldfusion? The goal is the automatically complete a series of online forms that have text boxes, drop down menus, links and Submit buttons. Thanks

The for the info, I have not gotten it to work as of yet. But I have a different question. Can I run PHP and CGI scripts on a Coldfusion server?

I have both PHP and Coldfusion running on the same server. You will obviously have to set PHP up including permissions for sessions, etc.

Why do you ask?

I must admit Coldfusion has me a little frustrated.

Haha, at least you're honest! What is it that's most frustrating? I'd assume it has something to do with maintaining the session.

Yes.. trying to keep the session between cfhttp post is not happening. I was able to automate an order using PERL; thats what sparked my earlier question about CGI scripts and PHP. Is there a howto on running PHP and CGI on a coldfusion server?
The logical question is: If I've had success with PERL why not run a different web server? A large part of my project is manipulating PDF files based on user input. As a programming neophyte, it is my opinion that Coldfusion offers the most straight forward approach to create custom PDF files on the fly. Ok.. the fact I am currently paying a monthly fee for Coldfusion server space might have something to do with it.

If you did pass the CFID and CFTOKEN values, it should be maintained. It is possible to keep the session intact as you can see from the link earlier (see post #20).

I don't know about Perl, but PHP and Coldfusion both work fine on the same server. I'm assuming by Coldfusion server, you just mean one running IIS or Apache. Is the monthly fee for Coldfusion hosting? If it is, you may have to ask your host if they support PHP.

Greetings, I have a very simple question. How do you simulate a user input to turn off a screen saver in Windows (either a mouse movement, mouse click, or keyboard input)? I promise I searched the newsgroup before asking :) I have written the following program that loads all my Webshots files into the Webshots photo manager, or so I thought. When you load the first it starts the screen saver. All other subsequent ones are not

Can someone give a sample to prevent a row from being deleted in a datatable? I tried e.Row.RejectChanges(); in dt_RowDeleting() but seems does not work. I need verify if there other data using data in this row before actually remove it from datagrid. I can certainly control with Delete button. But if I want to allow the user to use Del key on the keyboard, I lost this kind control.

I am writing a c# class which main purpose is to simulate the dialog with a GUI-application. The idea is that this class can simulate some user actions like mouse clicks on buttons. I have found the following possibilities to simulate it: 1) Use SendInput Function (user32.dll) (unmanaged code) 2) Use System.Windows.Forms.SendKeys (managed code)

Is it possible to simulate a mouse click in the window I made (it's a Form), but not give it focus? I tried using WinAPI's mouseevent and SendMessage of WM_LBUTTONDOWN/WM_LBUTTONUP as suggested by the folks in #winapi on EFnet, but I think those require the window to have focus. Either that, or I'm doing something else wrong. The click actually seems to work once, and then stops working... I have no idea what is the problem actually....
