[wtr-general] Re: click_no_wait, why so inconsistent?
Sorry for taking so long to answer, but it might be related with the bug submitted by me http://jira.openqa.org/browse/WTR-446 You could check if that makes any difference.

It would always stop at the second link, but my script is up to the 8th download now and still looking good. Thanks for the help, really.

Let us know if this helps you and i'll bring this topic up with Watir's developers.

There is a similar issue raised two years ago without a defined conclusion,http://groups.google.com/group/watir-general/browse_thread/thread/fb7... I call the element like so, ie.link(:href, downloadURL.to_s).click_no_wait The element is defined as so, a id=download_btn class=buttonEnable onmouseout= onmouseover= onclick=MarkDownloadFunction(some identifier) href=/path/to/ zipfile.zipDownload/a the onclick DownloadFunction just sets the class to an enable/disable button to make it look like the button has been pressed with a new image from CSS. I found another thread about troubleshooting the click_no_wait here,http://groups.google.com/group/watir-general/browse_thread/thread/222... The patch for 1.6.5 doesn't seem to apply to me since I am using a different version of Ruby. I tried editing the watir/ page_container.rb file as explained in the previous thread's link to Jarmo's post, but the console just sits there. I get no feedback after running the command generated in the click_no_wait text file. Ever better, if I open up google in IRB and call click, click_no_wait on buttons, they work just fine, every time! Maybe there is something unique to this website that is stopping click_no_wait somehow, but I am out of ideas.

Re: [wtr-general] question for ff browser
Hi All, To add my question to this thread. i have a scenario when in I have initialized first IE say ie1 where in i have declared a variable SignIn for say SignIn button and When I click on some link it opens a new window and I want to work on that window for which I will use ie2 = Watir::IE.attach(:title, second window title) and My question is if I want to make use of variable SignIn for IE2. how can i achieve this? following is the sample code ie1 = Watir::IE.new() ie1.goto(gmail.com) signin = ie1.button(:text, SignIn) now I did some operation and opened a new gmail login page in new browser and I attached it to ie2 in the following way ie2 = Watir::IE.attach(:title, can be anything) now instead of using ie2.button(:text, Singin).click() is there any way that I can make use of already existing variable signin ?

[wtr-general] Re: Rich calender how to get value
You have to ask yourself how much value you provide to your project by testing some third party tool beyond it's being integrated properly into your product. If it was me, I'd look for the most expedient way to get the value I needed 'set' If the calendar has an input box that accepts my typing into it, then doing something similar to that in your tests might be the best route. As always with any tool that drives the browser (Watir, Selenium, etc) you look at 'what do I do manually to control this thing?' and then basically find ways to simulate that using the automation code. If it LETS you just click in a given spot and input a value, then that's what I'd try to automate in most of my cases (beyond one basic test that the calendar works when you pick the date that way) But some of these tools, the ONLY way to get the date into the field is by 'picking' it from the calendar, and there is no 'manual entry' option that lets you 'type' in a value. So you are stuck automating the clicking on specific cells in the calendar. To do that you need to write a script that's going to work a month or a year from now, so you'll need to go throught the motions of clicking in the portion (a sub table in the example I looked at) of the control that lets you pick the year and month, Then picking the year and month, THEN picking the day of the month. Otherwise a day from now you'll be clicking on July 30 instead of June 30 Based on the sample I looked at, almost all of those are going to be .cell elements, and hopefully just doing a 'click' on the element will work for what you need.
