also I suppose you need to initalise the value of ${match}
OR have your condition as
${__javaScript("${match}" != "wait_spin.gif")}
so that the initial value is irrelevantOne question.. how does the browser do this ? does it continuously refresh (in which case your test is correct) or does it wait for the response of an AJAX call (in which case you probably shouldnt implement your test in this way) regards deepak On Wed, Aug 12, 2009 at 10:31 AM, sebb <[email protected]> wrote: > On 12/08/2009, hoffm11 <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > > > ok.
