Re: [Wtr-general] Selecting controls in a dialog box
A quick check will tell you if it's a modal dialog. Open ie to the page that launches the dialog. Open irb in a command window. In irb type: require 'watir' ie = Watir::IE.attach(:title, /some part of the ie title/) Launch the dialog. Back in irb type: puts ie.modal_dialog.title If you get a title string then you've got an ie modal dialog which you can interact with using ie.modal_dialog The tricky thing with modal dialogs is getting the controls. You can dump the html into a file, pop it open using ie and then use ie developer toolbar on it. -Charley On 7/10/07, Bret Pettichord [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Paul Rogers wrote: have you looked at the modal_dialog stuff in watir?

yes, modal dialogs are only supported using that particular version - Original Message - From: Matt Berney [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Wednesday, July 11, 2007 11:09 am Subject: Re: [Wtr-general] Selecting controls in a dialog box To: wtr-general@rubyforge.org It seems like I am having troubles with Ruby v1.8.5 and the modal_dialog support.

Re: [Wtr-general] Selecting controls in a dialog box
No way!!! It works!!! Uninstalling 1.8.5 and installing 1.8.2-15 worked like a champ!!! This required installing gem watir-1192 as well as installing gem win32-process. But other than that, it works just as advertised... ie = Watir::IE.attach(:url,/ticket.aspx/) ie.button(:name,button).click == opens modal dialog ie.modal_dialog.select_list(:id,comboBox).select(item) ie.modal_dialog.text_field(:id,text).set(Comments) ie.modal_dialog.button(:name,btnContinue).click Thanks again for all the help!!! ___ Wtr-general mailing list Wtr-general@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general
Re: [Wtr-general] Selecting controls in a dialog box
Step 1: Since it is a dialog box, Attach the focus to this page by using the following: ie = Watir::IE.attach(:title, Web Page Dialog) Step 2: Do a puts ie.show_all_objects This will give the various objects and their identification attributes. Step 3: Based on the above output, perform the regular text field entry and click button operation. ___ Wtr-general mailing list Wtr-general@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general

The default Watir::IE.attach method doesn't seem to work because
this is a dialog. I can use the autoit.WinWait() method to
get the window handle. But, access the controls on the
dialog seems elusive. Any help is greatly appreciated.
