Re: [Wtr-general] Using Until
so my example was kind of incomplete. I really only meant it as an example. Try
this instead.
def link_there?
link_text = "Click Me"
return @ie.link(:text , link_text).exists?
end
@ie=Watir::IE.attach('www.google.com')
while 1 # add something here to stop infinite loop
if link_there?
@ie.link(:text , link_text).click?
else
@ie.link(:text , "Next").click
end
end

Re: [Wtr-general] Using Until
isnt Jeffs code kind of over kill for this?
def link_there?
link_text = "Click Me"
return @ie.link(:text , link_text).exists?
end
while 1 # add something here to stop infinite loop
if link_there?
@ie.link(:text , link_text).click?
else
@ie.link(:text , "Next").click
end

Re: [Wtr-general] Using Until
Aha, so you want to click Google's "Next" button? Take a look at
this, it might give you some ideas:
http://testingjeff.wordpress.com/2007/01/27/creating-methods-on-the-flyand-bugs-in-google-phonebook/
Also, if you are unsure how to address a particular page element, take
a look at the "unittests" folder in the watir directory. It will be
in C:/ruby/lib/ruby... somewhere, depending on whether you did a gem
install or used the one-click installer.

Re: [Wtr-general] Using Until
Sorry, probably my fault for not being clear about how new I am to this.
I want the code to do the following things:
1. Check on page for a link.
2. If link not there, press "Next page"
3. If link there, click on it.
4. When next page reached (if step 2 followed), repeat the action of looking
for link/clicking next.
Am playing around with code, and have come up with following:
link = ie.link(:url, "http://www.freeuk.com";)
until link.exists
ie.goto("http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=freeuk&hl=en&start=10&sa=N";)
if link.exists = true
ie.goto(link)
end
Am totally aware that this will not work, but it may give my helpers more idea
of the details I want!!
Thankyou all in advance, and please help!

Re: [Wtr-general] Using Until
I'm not sure how new 'wait_until' is, but if you have it do
wait_until(time_to_wait_in_seconds){ $ie.element(:type,'value').exists? }

[Wtr-general] Using Until
Hi, Am v new to Watir/Ruby, so probably a simple question for someone. I'm trying to put a loop in a script where it checks for a link on a page, if the link isn't there, it clicks on the next page button, looks for the link again, and the process repeats until it finds the link, and then clicks on it. Can anyone help? TIA ___ Wtr-general mailing list Wtr-general@rubyforge.org http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general
