autoit.ControlSend(Open URL, , Edit1, $playUrl)
autoit.sleep(5000)
autoit.ControlClick(Open URL, Open, Button1)

end
Launches Winamp fine and also launches Edit Box to paste URL fine but
prints null in the edit box not passing the playUrl value, I tried
passing playUrl rather than $PlayUrl etc but does not work.
Please help me figure out what I am doing wrong.
Thanks

[wtr-general] Re: Really....Ruby + Watir + Command Line
The error message is saying that it can't find the text field with the name 'q'. For some reason, it doesn't exist in the browser contained by your variable ie. Are you sure that your browser is on the page you think it is? One way to troubleshoot this is with an irb session. Run your test and when it fails, open an irb session in a command prompt. Then try the following commands: require 'watir' ie = Watir::IE.find(:title, /Google/) ie.text_field(:name,'q').exists? I've copied both of your scripts into an irb session and they ran without any problems - even without the sleep commands (you shouldn't need those). Try stepping through your scripts, line by line in irb so you can watch what happens in with each step.

[wtr-general] install for 1.6.2 doesn't work after 1.6.5 release
This morning I was helping a coworker get some things up and running with watir and noticed that he had inadvertently got 1.6.5. Since 1.6.5 changes the way .visible? works, we decided to go back to 1.6.2 and make sure everything was ok there. We removed watir, commonwatir and firewatir and verified that everything was uninstalled. After that, we did the following: C:\ gem install watir -v 1.6.2 ERROR: Error installing watir: firewatir requires commonwatir (= 1.6.5, runtime) C:\ gem list --local *** LOCAL GEMS *** (removed unnecessary gems) ... commonwatir (1.6.2) ...

C:\ gem install watir -v 1.6.2 Successfully installed watir-1.6.2 1 gem installed Installing ri documentation for watir-1.6.2... Installing RDoc documentation for watir-1.6.2...

I'm going to address jarib's gist at http://gist.github.com/207724
for the stuff under 'discussion', I discuss inline (and generally say the
route I took in my fork of watir); for the bugs, I mostly just say whether
they are fixed in my fork.
Discussion
- [bug guard WTR-346] Should Image#{width,height,file_size} return
String or Integer?
Integer. mine does this.
- [bug guard WTR-347] {Button,Image}#src returns full path in IE,
actual attribute in Celerity - add deviation guard? (This also affects the
Image#file_created_date spec)
tricky, I think IE and firefox behave differently there too.
- [deviation guard] Element#style returns actual style string on
Celerity, calculated style in IE
I think it should return the object, so that you can do
element.style.backgroundColor and the like.
- [bug guard WTR-348] Browser#status does not return the value of
window.status
yeah, we should probably make #status return this; make some other method
return @ie.statusText.
- [bug guard WTR-350] Element#to_s includes tag name in Celerity, not
in Watir. Perhaps these should be changed anyway?
Should include tag name. mine does.
- [bug guard WTR-351] Element.new raises ArgumentError with wrong
message
fixed in mine; all Elements use the same initialize method. though it takes
3 arguments, one optional.
- [deviation guard] Div#text should return an empty string if the div
is hidden. Or should it?
I can't see why it should. if I want the text, I use #text regardless of
visibility; if I want to know if it's visible I use #visible?. If I want to
know what text is visible, I'd use both methods. If I want to know what text
exists even if it's not visible, this would take away that capability. The
two aren't related and #text shouldn't be affected. Maybe a new method,
#visible_text ?
Somewhat tangentially, #visible? seems to return false if a thing is
disabled - from #visible? (in Element class for IE-watir)
if object.invoke('isDisabled')
return false
end
This seems wrong to me. Disabled is different than visible; disabled
elements are still visible (well, except when they aren't).
- Container#option should be available from top level (Browser) or not?
Yes. It is in mine.
- Container#cells,rows should only be available on Table elements?
Yes. Mine has:
- Table#cells - returns cells of this table (not in any nested tables)
- Table#rows - returns rows of this table (not in any nested tables)
- TableRow#cells - cells of this row (not in any nested tables)
- Container#table_cells - any td or th element (if called on a Table,
this does go into nested ones)
- Container#table_rows - any tr element (if called on a Table, this does
go into nested ones)
Watir bugs
- [bug guard WTR-343] Browser#element_by_xpath not returning Watir
objects
I changed this to #element_object_by_xpath in mine, as it returns an ole
object or jssh object. Element objects are returned by container methods,
for example container.div(:xpath, whatever')
- [bug guard WTR-344] Browser#elements_by_xpath doesn't support
wildcard xpaths
Yeah, I started looking for a more thorough xpath implementation briefly,
but stopped because my application doesn't really use xpath.
- [bug guard WTR-327] Browser#element_by_xpath should return a
Watir::Element if there are no matching elements, not nil
container.div(:xpath, 'whatever') does this. Mine doesn't have an
#element_by_xpath anymore, so doesn't really apply.
- [bug guard WTR-328] Browser#elements_by_xpath should return an empty
Array if there are no matching elements
Maybe we should come up with a better standard for specifying by xpath. for
single elements, container methods with how=:xpath is good and consistent, I
think, but for collections, I don't have a solution currently. My watir
usage doesn't really use xpath at the moment, so haven't done much with
this.
- [bug guard WTR-349] Buttons#length is missing two buttons
this should work in mine
- [bug guard WTR-349] Buttons#last fails
this should work in mine
- [bug guard WTR-355] Form should accept 'class' as how argument
works in mine
- [bug guard WTR-356] Form#exists? should raise TypeError on invalid
'what' argument.
shouldn't this raise MissingWayOfFindingException on #initialize if 'what'
is invalid? thus not be instantiated with invalid 'what'
- [bug guard WTR-352] Element#parent should return the correct Watir
object type if possible.
works in mine
- [bug guaard WTR-353] TextField#visible? should return false if
type='hidden'
works in mine
- [bug guard WTR-354]TableRow#length,Table#row_count,
TableRows#lengthshould return the correct number of cells
TableRow#length isn't defined in mine, though I don't think that's a good
method name. table_row.cell_count is good (and is defined in mine - I think
it is in Watir too), but #length seems

[wtr-general] Re: run firewatir from terminal
I'm assuming you're on OSX from the Terminal reference, which would have been a useful thing for you to mention. The way you're running it, bash is going to try to execute your ruby script as a bash script, I expect, rather than ruby. You have a couple of options: Simplest is, you can run `ruby path/to/script.rb` and not have to change the executable permission or anything else. Or, you can add a #! statement to the beginning of the file, such as #!/path/to/your/ruby or, more generally useful: #!/usr/bin/env ruby see https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Shebang_(Unix) for more info on that.

How can I do it with firewatir?
