Hello everyone. I'm sure this question has been asked a million times, and I apologize in advance for asking it again. Here's my problem:

A want to be able to click a radio button inside a web page i open on my form. I can set the cursor position to the radio button, but i'm lost from there. I know it is possible to use APIs to simulate a click on objects on your form, but i need to click in a specific place on the webbrowser object. I'm not sure how to do this with the SendInput api. Any ideas?

Thanks
JRob

From your question it seems that you have figured out how to get the mouse over the button (wherever that may be on the screen).

To simulate a click, you can use either the:
mouse_event OR
SendInput
Windows API functions.
Search MSDN or the Platform SDK for help on how to use them.

Pay attention to which operating systems support these functions, and which OS you're writing for.

In most cases, you don't need to simulate mouse clicks in order to set a radio button on a web page to true/false. Use the document object model to toggle the value instead.

Edit: Also, please don't start multiple threads for the same question. It'll only confuse people.

I thank you for your help, but i still am not able to accomplish my task.
I use Win XP home with SP2

To be specific:My program starts and a webbrowser on one side of my form opens the page "http://www.1037theq.com/schoolspirit.html"
I use the complete function so my mouse moves to the radio button i want to click. Then i click a button which should activate the "document object model" you showed me. but it doesn't. do you know of anymore examples or have any more ideas? thanks in advance.
