Hi, Paul. To do this in IE9 and up, you’ll need to find the text using UIA. There’s not a script interface to UIA, so you’d need to write an external app. This is what we did with VirtualView. If you bring up Virtual View over an IE9 and up window, you’ll get text.

I talked about this off line with Chip Orange but Marc Solomon requested I query the community. I wrote a script that finds a string on the screen and moves the mouse pointer to it. This is something that the Jaws Findstring() script function does. Also Window-Eyes and Jaws does this with their search dialog. I use clips and clip methods to do this. This works fine in MS Word and Notepad. It does not work on a Web page. I use I E 11 and W E 8.4. Is there a W E object model solution for this regarding Web pages? Am I missing something? Will it work in W E 9.0 ? Paul Bonarrigo
