Re: [Wtr-general] New Watir User Guide (beta)
I do the same sort of thing now except that I normally do $br = Water::IE.new in one place. I do this for the time I might want to point $br to FireFox and run the same script with it.

Re: [Wtr-general] New Watir User Guide (beta)
Since I now normally do a separate $br = Watir::IE I do a '.new' and then a 'goto' elsewhere. In this case it brings up 'about:blank' and does not have to wait for a lot of junk to load. If you are not on a LAN that has access to WWW, then you will wait a long time for http://www.google.com.

Do you ever do something with an empty browser? Every time I open a browser, I immediately go to a web page. I am thinking in changing it back to ie = Watir::IE.start(http://www.google.com;) Zeljko -- ___ Wtr-general mailing list Wtr-general@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general___ Wtr-general mailing list Wtr-general@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general
Re: [Wtr-general] Controlling IE popups with stock Watir: simplest way?
I played around with win32-utils code, but I was getting odd results.
(It appeared that the fork() was really exec()ing the program in a
subprocess, rather than continuing the subprogram from the point of
the fork.) So I went back to popen.
I ran into a further problem. One button press would generate two
confirmation dialogs, one after the other, without control returning
to Watir between them. So I needed to invent some new syntax. I'm not
wildly fond of it, but it works. It looks like this:
$ie.after {
button(:name, action).click
}.dismiss_windows(
Choose a digital certificate = [{Tab}, {Space}],
Signing = [{Space}]
)
Code below. I should write tests for it. Realistically, though, I
won't have time to be a good submitter for the near future. I have to
learn both Rails and Selenium next week for a different client, and
I'll be going flat out for at least all of June.
This code should probably invoke the watcher scripts using ruby -S.
Right now, it assumes the watcher script is in the same directory as
the test, which is sloppy.

def after(block)
@block = block

@window_title = window_title

IO.popen(commandline.join(' '))

end
end
if $0 == __FILE__
title = ARGV[0]
keys = ARGV[1..-1]
# $stderr.puts title, keys.inspect; $stderr.flush
Watcher.after_seeing(title).send(keys)

Re: [Wtr-general] Controlling IE popups with stock Watir: simplest way?
You might be interested in my venerable Perl controller below. It
launches a ruby script using system(1,), which returns control to the
calling process. A short explanation of how system() does this is
here: http://perlmonks.org/?node_id=547218
use warnings;
use strict;
use Win32::GuiTest qw(FindWindowLike SetForegroundWindow SendKeys );
my $x = 0;
system (1, ruby c:/myscript.rb);
while (1) { #INFINITE LOOP
sleep 2; #CHECK FOR NEW WINDOW EVERY 2 SEC
my @windows = FindWindowLike(0, ^Logon Right Here);
for (@windows) {
SetForegroundWindow($_); #BRING THE RIGHT WINDOW IN FOCUS JUST IN CASE
SendKeys(user);
SendKeys({TAB});
SendKeys(password);
SendKeys({ENTER});
$x = 1;
}
exit if $x == 1;
}
