  Returning a Web Element's Name?

  Jun 23, 2008 06:36 PM|LINK

  Is it possible to get the name or id of a Webrowser element by search for the value?

  Take the following code for example:

  Private Sub tester_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles tester.Click

  MessageBox.Show("Value Is: " & DirectCast(GetCurrentWebForm.item("btnG"), mshtml.HTMLTextAreaElement).value)

  End Sub

  If you navigate to Google.com and run that code, the messagebox would display "Google Search", because the name (btnG) corresponds to the value,

  So is there a way to reverse this? Input "Google Search" to have the messagebox display "btnG'?

  Thanks...
