Hi All,

I am writing a project in C# using a web browser control. Objective of this project is to automate the browser. I have an element that I want to be clicked automatically. I am using mshtml.IHTMLDocument3 interface to access DOM document and then find the element by ID. Once I do find the element by ID, I cast it to mshtml.IHTMLElement; but when I do that, I get null reference to mshtml.IHTMLElement variable. Therefore, my click method does not work. Please Help. I need this for my job.

mshtml.IHTMLDocument3 doc = (mshtml.IHTMLDocument3)this.LPBrowser.Document.DomDocument;

doc.getElementById("newlink");

mshtml.IHTMLElement a;

a = (mshtml.IHTMLElement)doc; //Casting here but a becomes null

a.click(); //null.click() so this doesn't work

Thanks.

Abdul Asif.
