Help regarding automation of IE by Win32::OLE

2
Hi,
I am trying to automate internet explorer using Active Perl’s Win32::OLE Module

I know that WithEvents(OBJECT[, HANDLER[, INTERFACE]]method enables and disables the firing of events by the specified OBJECT.

And the INTERFACE argument in it tells the Win32::OLE module the name of the event interface that an application must implement to receive event notifications from a WebBrowser control or from the Microsoft Internet Explorer application.

So My question is what interface should I implement in order to capture a button click or a link click on a webpage?

thanks in advance

Ditch using IE at all, and use one of the many perl modules available. Of course, I don't know what your ultimately purposes are. But I'm going to randomly guess that this may be simply be an XY problem.

PS
Do not cross forum post. If I had noticed earlier, I actually wouldn't have helped you at all. Cross posters notoriously do not come back and check their responses, and therefore waste people's time.
