Internet Explorer, COM+, Javascript and Python

[Ishpeck]

I need to make IE execute javascript in a web page with COM+ and
Python.

Similarly to the way they do it in this article. . .

Something like this should be close:

import win32com.client, pythoncom
ie=win32com.client.Dispatch('internetexplorer.application')
ie.Visible=1
ie.Navigate('somepagewithjavascript.html')
id=ie.Document.Script._oleobj_.GetIDsOfNames('somejsfunction')
res=ie.Document.Script._oleobj_.Invoke(id, 0, pythoncom.DISPATCH_METHOD,
True, <parameter or tuple of parameters> )

Yes, that definitely works. Only one minor correction: it seems that to
pass multiple parameters you need to pass them sequentially seperated by
commas instead of in a tuple, i.e.
res=ie.Document.Script._oleobj_.Invoke(id, 0, pythoncom.DISPATCH_METHOD,
True, param1, param2, param3, ......... )

Useful test sitefor above code:

Do you guys know if there is a way to do this in Linux?
Thanks.

What is "this"? Your subject line provides a context, but not a problem
to which we can give you the solution. Please be specific.
