Thread: Excel and IE html site

This is my first post here so hello everybody!
I'm working on macro that opens html site using Internet Explorer. What it does is also fulfilling form on that site. There are 2 problems i can't solve on my own:
1)in that html form there is a text input field called "Name-input". I use this code to fill it with my name:

ie.document.forms(i).Name-input.Value = ""

and it keep returning compile error. I think it's because of keyword "input" in the form field name. My code works like a charm for any other field but this one. I'm not able to change that field name in html form, so i need to change my macro.
2)Similliar situation. I want to save an image from site to my local drive. The obvious way would be to download it by its link, but it's not an option for me. I need to save it from site that's already beed loaded. I found solution on other forum, to use 2 functions - getElementByTagName and inStr. This is my code:

For Each ele In ie.document.getelementsbytagname("img")
  If InStr(ele.innerhtml, "alt=""linx""") > 0 Then Exit For
Next ele

I know it works because it helped one guy that had same problem. I don't know what getElementByTagName actually returns and how to save it as an image.

I will be very grateful for any suggestions...

Thank You for answer! But I think I didn't make myself clear. My problem is not finding any piece of html code. It's well signed. That element I have problem with is a text field withid=Name-input. I can't fulfill this particular text field because of its id, that contains VB keyword "input" within. While trying to compile it Excel goes crazy because it recognize "input" and expects () brackets after it. But in my code there should not be brackets because "input" is just a part of text field id....
if Your answer addressed also to 2) of my question, I'll try to explain: I want to save picture that already has been loaded with internet explorer. How to achieve that? I can't reload it anyhow because it changes everytime You reload the page. That function in my previous post was to find the proper html for this picture and keeps it in object. How to save it? This is the question...

Many Regards...

Thank You for effort but I don't know how it is to help me. I don't know if my english is that bad or what, but You seem not to understand the point of my post. I can't make myself clearer so I'll put my code for 1)

Sub Login()
Dim ie As Object
Set ie = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
Dim a As String




With ie
    .Visible = True
    .navigate "http://www.somehtml"
    Do While .busy: DoEvents: Loop
    Do While .ReadyState <> 4: DoEvents: Loop
    With .document.Forms(i)
        'Stree Number
        .login.Value = "wojtek@yahoo.com"
        'Stree Name
        .Password.Value = "1234"
        .name-input.Value = ""    
    End With
    End With
    
End Sub

It doesn't work because of "-" between "name" and "input". If I replace it with "_" it works but I can't do it.

Regards
