In an application that automates IE I'm trying to get an HTML nodes screen
coordinates so I can 'flash' the node. Thanks to this list, I'm able to
flash. I can also get the offsets for the node within the 'BODY' tag.
Now all I need is the HWND or screen coordinates of the window holding the
BODY tag.
Each tag has a parentDocument property that returns a DispHTMLDocument
object.
The DispHTMLDocument object has a parentWindow property that returns a
IHTMLWindow2 object.
Unfortunately, the IHTMLWindow2 object does not offer a HWND or a screen
coordinates. However the IHTMLWindow3 class DOES offer what appears to be
screen coordinates, screenLeft(Retrieves the x-coordinate of the upper
left-hand corner of the browser's client area, relative to the upper
left-hand corner of the screen.) and screenRight.
Question: How do I get from a IHTMLWindow2 to a IHTMLWindow3.
A bit of looking at the interface code in
3050F1C5-98B5-11CF-BB82-00AA00BDCE0Bx0x4x0.py reveals this snip:
class HTMLWindow2(CoClassBaseClass): # A CoClass
CLSID = IID('{D48A6EC6-6A4A-11CF-94A7-444553540000}')
coclass_sources = [
HTMLWindowEvents2,
HTMLWindowEvents,
]
default_source = HTMLWindowEvents
coclass_interfaces = [
IHTMLWindow5,
IHTMLWindow4,
DispHTMLWindow2,
IHTMLWindow3,
IHTMLWindow2,
]
default_interface = DispHTMLWindow2
This suggests that there may be a way to get from one class to the other.
Question: But how?
