VBA & Selenium | Access iframe within HTML containing #document

I am trying to access the HTML within two iframes using Selenium Basic in VBA, as IE has been blocked on our machines, and Python, etc. are not available to us.

Previously I could access the html with this:

Dim IE As InternetExplorerMedium
Set IE = New InternetExplorerMedium

' actual website excluded as it is a work hosted website which requires login, etc.
website = "..."
IE.navigate (website)

Dim IEDocument As HTMLDocument
Set IEDocument = IE.document.getElementById(id1).contentDocument.getElementById(id2).contentDocument

From there I would have access to all the HTML elements which I could work with.

Now I am trying the following with Selenium Basic:

Set cd = New Selenium.ChromeDriver
website = "..."

cd.Start baseUrl:=website

cd.Get "/"
Dim af1 As Selenium.WebElement, af2 As Selenium.WebElement
Set af1 = cd.FindElementById("CRMApplicationFrame")
Set af2 = af1.FindElementById("WorkAreaFrame1")

It works up to the last line, as it is able to set af to the "CRMApplicationFrame" id; however, I am unable to get inside of it.

I think the solution lies in executing a bit of JavaScript, similar to as in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=phYGCGXGtEw

Although I don't have a #ShadowDOM line, I do have a #document line.

Based on and trying to adapt the video I have tried the following:

Set af2 = cd.ExecuteScript(Script:="return arguments[0].contentDocument", arguments:=af1 )

However, that did not work.

I also tested:

Dim af1 As Selenium.WebElement
Set af1 = cd.FindElementById("CRMApplicationFrame")
call cd.SwitchToFrame (af1)

Debug.Print cd.PageSource

However, the SwitchToFrame line won't execute, with a 438 error: Object doesn't support this property or method.

Any advice or guidance on how I could succeed would be highly appreciated!

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? [closed]

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? public fucntion __construct(Application $app, $Router $roouter) { } I have read the documentation and some online tutorial but I can find any clear explanation. I am learning Laravel and I am wondering where does this kernel constructor receives its arguments from. "POSTMOTERM" CLARIFICATION: Here is more clarity.I have checked the boostrap/app.php and it is only used for boostrapping the interfaces into the container class. What is not clear to me is where and how the Kernel class is instatiated and the arguments passed to the object calling the constructor.Something similar to; obj = new kernel(arg1,arg2) or, is the framework using some magic functions somewhere? Special gratitude to those who burn their eyeballs and brain cells on this trivia before it goes into a full blown menopause alias "MARKED AS DUPLICATE". To some of the itchy-finger keyboard warriors, a.k.a The mods,because I believe in th...
