in reply to validating the error message

You can use the content() method of Win32::IEAutomation to get the HTML as a string, then you can use one of the HTML modules to parse this and retreive the error message.

    That is funny :) IE already parsed the html ... IEAutomation returns objects, all he has to figure out is the right combination of method calls... what he'll probably ask next is how to use HTML::Parser :)
