There is a website I am trying to use VBA to input the Username and Password and then "Click" the submit button.

I was successful in placing the Username and Password into the appropriate fields, but I can't get it to "click" on the Login Button.

This is the website: https://sso.godaddy.com/login?realm=pass&app=email

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.<strike></strike>

Press F7 to start spell check in Excel. Be careful, by default, Excel does not check Capitalized Werds (whoops)
I cannot get to the URL from this PC. What code are you using to enter the name/pword and try and click?

Are you using getelementbyid?

I use something like this - getElementById("btnRun").Click

The code for the button I need to click is :
<button tabindex="4" class="btn btn-primary btn-block" id="submitBtn" type="submit">Sign In</button>

On other sites I used VBA to login had a name associated to it such as: <input name="cmdlogin" class="signup-submit-button" id="_login" type="submit" value="Login">

But as you can see, it just says button tabindex="4" I couldn't get it to work.



This is the code I have so far:

Dim wbname As String
Dim wsname As String
Dim objIE As SHDocVw.InternetExplorer 'microsoft internet controls (shdocvw.dll)
Dim htmlDoc As MSHTML.HTMLDocument 'Microsoft HTML Object Library
Dim htmlInput As MSHTML.HTMLInputElement
Dim htmlColl As MSHTML.IHTMLElementCollection
Dim HTML_Element As IHTMLElement

wbname = ActiveWorkbook.Name
wsname = ActiveSheet.Name

Set objIE = New SHDocVw.InternetExplorer

With objIE
.Navigate "https://sso.godaddy.com/login?realm=pass&app=email"
.Visible = 1
Do While .ReadyState <> 4: DoEvents: Loop
Application.Wait (Now + TimeValue("0:00:02"))

'set user name and password
Set htmlDoc = .Document
Set htmlColl = htmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("INPUT")
Do While htmlDoc.ReadyState <> "complete": DoEvents: Loop
For Each htmlInput In htmlColl
If htmlInput.Name = "name" Then
htmlInput.Value = Workbooks(wbname).Worksheets("Settings").Range("D2").Value
Else
If htmlInput.Name = "password" Then
htmlInput.Value = Workbooks(wbname).Worksheets("Settings").Range("D3").Value
End If
End If
Next htmlInput

'click login



Rem Set htmlDoc = .Document
Rem Set htmlColl = htmlDoc.getElementsByClassName("btn btn-primary btn-block")
Rem Do While htmlDoc.ReadyState <> "complete": DoEvents: Loop
Rem For Each htmlInput In htmlColl
Rem If htmlInput.Name = "submitBtn" Then
Rem htmlInput.Click
Rem Exit For
Rem End If
Rem Next htmlInput
End With

Try submitting the form.
Code:
Set frm = htmlDoc.forms(0)

frm.submit

The above code was written for vba. Try this for VBS, I don't know much.
