Powershell Browsing The Internet

did you know you can open and actually browsing the Internet from the PS Command Line ?

why should we use it ? we can load new IE Pages and do things in background visible or invisible to the user.

Lets Start –

first we need to use ComObject so lets load it

$ie = New-Object -ComObject "InternetExplorer.Application"

1	$ie = New-Object -ComObject "InternetExplorer.Application"

now the Object was loaded we can navigate with it –

$ie.Navigate("Http://Yahoo.com")

1	$ie.Navigate("Http://Yahoo.com")

now from here we can get ElementsByID ,get state and info..on the background ,check the properties with

$ie | GM

$ie | GM

Would you like to make the Browsing Visible ?No Problem just run –

$ie.Visible = $true

1	$ie.Visible = $true
