    Yeah so the method worked, I was able to obtain the webEngine and its document. I've just got to work out how to find the elements on the page and interact with them.

Based upon my minimal knowledge, getEngine is a native method of the web view object.  So, it's not part of TestComplete or anything.  If you have a webview object, it should have the getEngine method.  So... give it a try.

    Hi Sonya,

     

    I've been off work the past few days and haven't had a chance to try it yet. I'm going to have a look at it this week and I'll let you know how I get on.

     

    Kind regards,
