[wtr-general] Re: asset_enabled error to click a button
Yeah Z is correct I think, you are trying to click it before it's enbled. it seems like perhaps this button is inhereting some functionality via CSS or some other means. In the HTML you give, there's no label for it, there's no functionlity attached to it, it's just like a template waiting to be filled in.. you could click it all day long in the HTML you sent, and nothing would ever happen.. There has to be other code to make things happen, that's enabling or disabling the button, defining what happens when it is clicked, etc. Frankly it would seem that there's something that perhaps makes it start out disabled? so you might need to investigate what controls that, and what has to happen to enable the button for use. Some other action might need to preceed clicking the button, or you may just need to wait a few seconds after the page is loaded for client side code to do it's thing if there is extensive client side scripting.

I thought we had TH defined as well, but looking at the code, it's not there. Feel free to add a Jira ticket for this. If you do have Watir extensions then when/if we add whatever tags you have, then you can remove it from your own Watir extension and that's it.

evil grin.. yeah that's the passive-agressive 'clue-by-four' version of a google link. I use it in cases where I feel I'm faced with the infamous (give-fish teach-to-fish) situation. you can just go to www.lmgtfy.com (Let Me Google That For You) put in the terms, and it creates a link you can paste into responses. If the seach terms are less than obvious, I don't generally use it.. but if the 'obvious' search terms return the desired info as the top item in the results...

[wtr-general] Re: Watir and flash audio
Can you leave a user logged into the machine where the test is failing? I had a similar problem - some GUI tests would not work without a user logged in to Windows. So my Watir machines (VMs, actually) are configured to automatically log in as a particular user at boot. You can do this in XP or Vista.
