I think your nomenclature is what is confusing people. there is a
parameter of some objects that can set the to visible or not visible..
so when people see 'visible' they think you are talking about this.
Especially since that property does not change if the object is in the
current 'view' of the user according to the scrolling of the screen.
I expect that George's suggestion might work for you since what you
want is not to change the properties of the link, or set thefocuson
the link, but to scroll the browser window till it is in view of the
user.

Hi Orde,
Thanks for ur reply. This does't meet the requirement. Let me make
things clear. When Iclicka link manually I have to scroll down and
clickthe link. But when I automate toclickthe link, the link is
getting clicked which is not visible to the user. So my requirement is
to make the link visible and then toclickthe link. I searched the
watir api so that is there any function for that but i could't find.
Can any body throw some light on it.
Thanks,
Venkatesh

Perhaps:
@browser.link(:id, 'link_id').fire_event('onfocus')
@browser.link(:id, 'link_id').click
Do you have sample HTML?

[wtr-general] jssh (firefox) and unicode
I've been working all day to try to get unicode displayed in text fields properly. I've come to the conclusion that probably the JSSH socket connection doesn't support having unicode sent over it - is there anyone who can confirm this? I saw a fix for Chinese, but this was for IE, and other fixes involved ugliness like using Excel. Every time I try to send unicode data (encoded in various ways with different libraries) the output is always junk. Would building Firefox with JSSH support built in help at all? (not that it's an easy option on windows, but still). I was trying to experiment with JSSH myself using my own telnet client, but I couldn't find a unicode friendly telnet client at all (not a good sign). I've tried everything: I changed the default encoding of Firefox to utf8, I tried nkf, iconv, and packing arrays of ints into unicode chars. All of these just output junk (although the last method I could write to text files fine) I've learned a lot about unicode in *Ruby* but if the problem is unicode over JSSH that's beyond me. I also have rewritten the doKeyPressMethod for quite a while now, it looks like this: class FireWatir::TextField def doKeyPress( value ) @o.value = value fire_key_events end end this solves the slow text input problem on linux. I don't care about inputting the text character by character, which may have caused an issue with the unicode. I tried just putting in some unicode at that low level by setting @o.value to a unicode value directly (not sure how to get even lower level at the JSSH level) and that didn't help. Please, if I could just get a simple yes or no about whether this is even possible over JSSH, that would help a lot, thanks --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Watir General group.

[wtr-general] Stripping url
Having searched this group, plus the wiki, plus the mail archives I am still a little confused as to the syntax format for stripping text from a url. Apologies if there is a thread covering this already but I am now getting frustrated with this as it seems such a simple task but I can't get my head round it. I have a check in a test to ensure that the url reached is correct but there is a variable at the end of the url that I don't need. How do I get rid of this? My url is of the format http://www.blah.com/uk/home.asp?variable So far I have discovered that the following will possibly help; new_url = ie.url[/(.*)\//] although this strips everything after uk/. I just need to strip out ?variable. My question is really; What does this mean?

[wtr-general] Re: jssh (firefox) and unicode
I'm having similar problems working with double byte unicode, like Japanese and yes, I'm certain the problem is with the jssh extension - unfortunately, I don't know of any real solution and given that jssh is abandonware, it's very hard to get any help with it on any platform. Unicode works for me when it comes to getting values from the browser, e.g doing this on button with a Japanese value, will work: @browser.button(:id, btn_back).value.should == JapaneseString # I have to load the string from an Excel sheet though to avoid problems, so the assertion checks against a variable or constant that is loading the string content from within the Excel file... But setting a text_field with unicode, like: @browser.text_field(:id, whatever).set(JapaneseString) # again loading the unicode string from Excel... results in garbage characters... The value method does not work either: @browser.text_field(:id, whatever).value = JapaneseString I'm not sure jssh can even be compiled with proper unicode support, but I just don't know enough about it to be able to try on my own... Sorry I didn't have any real solution for you... Regards, John On May 1, 12:54 am, Stacia baka...@gmail.com wrote: I've been working all day to try to get unicode displayed in text fields properly.

[wtr-general] Re: Watir vs Selenium
I've worked with Selenium the past two years. It's an excellent tool. For one thing, support for multiple browsers is excellent because the way Selenium goes about manipulating pages is consistent from browser to browser. Watir is rapidly achieving support for multiple browsers, but it is using different mechanisms to manipulate each browser. I recently found an instance where Watir was far better than Selenium. I had a need to analyze a web site that contained a lot of poorly-formed HTML. Selenium would not recognize the pages at all, but Watir worked quite well. At one time Watir was somewhat easier to learn, although I think Selenium (especially with Selenium-RC) has been catching up. Traditionally Selenium appealed more to developers new to testing and Watir more to testers new to development, but I think that distinction is disappearing. So I'd say: try them both, build a few dozen assertions about the behavior of your particular site with each, and see which is more comfortable.
