Pressing A Webpage Button

[calfdog at yahoo.com]

You also may want to fire an event when a button is pressed such as:

ie.Document.forms['f'].elements['btnG'].FireEvent('onClick')


Events:
onclick
Fires when the user clicks the left mouse button on the object.

onsubmit
Fires when a FORM is about to be submitted.
