[wtr-general] click_no_wait not working for Checkbox
Hi,
I need to clear the checkbox which gives a pop up with OK and Cancel
buttons. Then I have to click on OK button to proceed.
I have used the following code to clear the check box:
Object.click_no_wait
Sleep 40
To click on OK button on the pop up, code used is
When /^clicks OK in the pop up box$/i do
sleep 5
startClicker(browser, OK, 60)
end
Have the following method used for startClicker
def startClicker(browser, button , waitTime = 9, user_input = nil)
# get a handle if one exists
hwnd = browser.enabled_popup(waitTime)
if (hwnd) # yes there is a popup
w = WinClicker.new
if (user_input)
w.setTextValueForFileNameField(hwnd, #{user_input})
end
# I put this in to see the text being input it is not necessary
to
work
sleep 3
# OK or whatever the name on the button is
w.clickWindowsButton_hwnd(hwnd, #{button})
#
# this is just cleanup
w = nil
end
end
Ruby Version: 1.8.6_26
Issue Description: click_no_wait , clears the check box and throws
popup when tested through IRB. But the same is not working when i run
the automated script.
Can anyone provide your inputs here. Thanks much.

From the original post, it looked like you were trying to attach the new window *before* clicking on the link that would open the window.

Hi,
This is my code:
require 'rubygems'
require 'firewatir'
Watir::Browser.default = 'firefox'
Browser = Watir::Browser.new
Browser.goto(http://localhost:3000/users;) This goes to the
application
B = Browser.title.each { |d| puts d.to_s } here i am checking if
that page(above) contains any title.The ans is true and i am getting
Users:
a = Browser.link(:title, Users:).exist?
puts a
sleep 5
Browser.attach(:title, '/Users:/') On this i get an error i.e.
`attach': Unable to locate window, using title and /Users:/
(Watir::Exception::NoMatchingWindowFoundException)
Now if i try
Browser.attach(:title, Users:) --- No error is displayed and link is not
clicked.

Now the title on clicking the link is Users: which is same which i have

[wtr-general] Re: Opening new browser window from existing one
You are still trying to attach to the page before it is opened.
1) Do not confuse the The Title TAG which is part of the page header
and sets the title of the webpage (which is usually displayed as the
title of the browser window) with a 'title' Attribute, which can be
set for any number of different tags within a page.. such 'title'
attributes apply only to the tag(s) within which they are defined, and
with respect to links have ZERO effect on the title of the page that
is loaded after the link is clicked. If you click a link and a new
page opens, that page will get its title from the title TAG in the
page header. Also link's need not have a title attribute defined, so
often it's not the best way to identify a link.
2) Attach does not click links, it does ONE thing and one thing only,
it attaches a browser object in your code to an active browser window
on the system. Period. For that to work the window has to exist,
FIRST before you invoke the attach function.
3) The code you provided below NEVER clicks a link, so no new page or
browser window is going to get loaded/created. All it does is check
for the presence of a link with a specific title attribute, it never
clicks that link.
4) Minor detail.. when writing in the Ruby language, most folks
reserve names like 'Browser' when defining a class, and use a
lowercase variable name 'browser' when creating an instance of the
class. I recommend observing that convention as it will make your
code less confusing to other folks who are used to seeing things done
that way.
SO in summary:
FIRST click the link, e.g.
browser.link(:text. 'New user').click
THEN after the clicking of that link has opened a new window, Attach
to the window e.g.
browser.attach(:title, '/Users: new/')
If it takes a bit of time for the new window to open, you might want
to put a short sleep between the two commands. (in general, the way
to know if that's needed is if it works fine done manually from an IRB
session, but fails when running your script.)
Try revising the code below to the above into account. If you are
still getting an error, provide the specific text of the error in
order to assist others in troubleshooting the problem with your code.

Symbols and strings aren't interchangeable, but you can convert. name.to_sym = :name :name.to_s = name The first part of the method argument takes a symbol, not a string: sname = name ff.link(sname.to_sym,skeyword).exists?

Re: [wtr-general] variablize ff.link(identifier,keyword).exists?
You can assign symbol to a variable though: sname = :name The same is true with regular expressions: skeyword = /google/ ff.link(sname, skeyword).exists? I'm not sure if you've modified your code for the example, because links don't typically have name attributes - href would be more common.

Not tested, but should work. As an aside, hungarian notation in Ruby looks weird and kind of makes no sense. :) Charley Baker Lead Developer, Watir, http://watir.com On Tue, Nov 30, 2010 at 12:41 PM, dave davidrey...@gmail.com wrote: Currently, ff.link(:name,/google/).exists? works and returns true. However, if I variablize things sname = :name skeyword = /google. ff.link(sname,skeyword).exists? returns false. Is there any text that states how to go about this?

Re: [wtr-general] Opening new browser window from existing one
Hi Amit, does your application code has code to open a new window when you click on the link. e.g. use target attribute of href tag. When you click link manually do you get a new window opened ? why do you want to open a new window from your watir script ? cheers Vishavdeep On Tue, Nov 30, 2010 at 5:13 AM, Amit Kulkarni amitkkulkarni...@gmail.comwrote: Hello all, Can we open a new browser window from the existing one using Firewatir for Linux and for Watir for windows: Following are my gem versions: firewatir (1.6.7, 1.6.5) Following is my code: require 'rubygems' require 'firewatir' Watir::Browser.default = 'firefox' Browser = Watir::Browser.new Browser.goto(http://localhost:3000/users;) sleep 5 *Browser.attach(:title, '/test123/')* #Browser.link(:href, /users/new).click Browser.text_field(:name, user[name]).set(amit) Browser.text_field(:name, user[description]).set(Qa Engineer) Browser.select_list(:name, user[role]).select(Hr) Browser.radio(:id, user_category_hr).set Browser.button(:value, Create).click Browser.link(:href, /users).click The line which is bold is what i am doing for opening the link in new window.Actually this is a link which you can see in the next line which is commented.

I have added the *title property* for the link as well In the Firefox-Edit-Preferences-tab i have unchecked the tab Open new windows in new tab instead But when i run the script it error is displayed as /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/firewatir-1.6.7/lib/firewatir/firefox.rb:272:in `attach': Unable to locate window, using title and /test123/(Watir::Exception::NoMatchingWindowFoundException) from user_create.rb:9 When i inspect the link following code is displayed a title=test123 href=/users/newNew user/a -- Before posting, please read http://watir.com/support.
