IEAutomation problem

[upendrasingh]

hi all,
i am writing an automation framework in perl that includes web browsing.i am using Win32::IEAutomation package for that purpose.actually the goal is to download a cab file from https://winqual.microsoft.com.after navigating through number of pages my script get the page for cab file downloading.that cab file download page is a result of my searching on the previous page with an event ID.corresponding to one event ID there are three possible status for the cab file.1-cab file is available for download,2-it is not available and 3-it contains some error.corresponding to these three status one of the 3 different small images got displayed on the page and only one of them is cliackable.means if the cab file is not available or contains error then the images that got displayed can't be clicked.
now the goal of my script is to click on the image if the cab file is available.actually in the html code of that page they have used a placeholder image that get replaced by the corresponding image after calculating the cab status.all of this is done using JS.i tried to access the image via the id of the placeholder img tag but it's not working.....what shud i do now????is there any alternate way???

If you can provide code/part of code that you have tried so far, someone here may be able to help you out.

Please use proper grammar and punctuation. Your post is too difficult to read, especially for a blind person, like me.

Well, now that I was able to read your question, even though you still don't put spaces at the beginning of sentences, I have no idea how to do what you are trying and have no suggestions. Maybe someone else will.
