can't get document property of wx.lib.iewin.IEHtmlWindow

[Cao Xiao Hua]

Hell all,

I am trying to use wx.lib.iewin.IEHtmlWindow to display a html page, and
get the user input from "<input >". error occurs when I try to get the
"document" property.

here is the error message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "W:\Python\Report\report.py", line 32, in OnGetButton
 el = self.ie.document
 File "C:\Python25\lib\site-packages\wx-2.8-msw-unicode\wx\lib
\iewin.py", line 252, in _get_Document
 return self.GetAXProp('Document')
  File "C:\Python25\lib\site-packages\wx-2.8-msw-unicode\wx\activex.py",
line 324, in GetAXProp
 return _activex.ActiveXWindow_GetAXProp(*args, **kwargs)
TypeError: Unable to convert value to expected type: (VT_EMPTY) for
property <Document>


I am using Python2.5 ,wxPython2.8.7.1 under XP

I search in this news groups, and found it was reported in 2004.
http://lists.wxwidgets.org/archive/wxPython-users/msg27343.html

Does this problem still exist? or I miss something.

Best Regards!
