[wtr-general] Unable to click_no_wait in modal dialog window
Hi, I'm having an issue where I'm trying to execute a click_no_wait command in a webpage dialog. Within this dialog, I need to use a click_no_wait because another webpage dialog pops up which I need to automate. I can use a click command, however, this does not work as Watir is waiting for the page to finish loading but it won't because a new modal dialog appears. Any ideas on how I can create a new click_no_wait method that works within a modal dialog or if I can create a new click method that does not wait? Any help would be appreciated. -A -- Before posting, please read http://watir.com/support.

Re: [wtr-general] Re: Handling a MAC Pro book File Upload window.
Some file upload solutions lets the user click a link, which then creates a
hidden file field and opens the upload dialog. The only way to deal with
these types of uploads is to make the file field visible, usually by
modifying its style through Browser#execute_script. This may be what you're
seeing, though unless you show us a page that will reproduce the problem,
it's a wild guess.

HTML samples, and this venue while good for discussion, bites for that
kind of thing, I would implore you to move this question (along inset
examples of your HTML and the code you have tried so far) over to
StackOverflow. Just be sure to tag the question with the 'Watir' and/
or 'Watir-Webdriver' (if you are using that) tag(s) and we'll see it
there (you can even post a link to it here if you want)
Since it allows editing of both questions and answers, properly
formatted 'code' samples within messages, embedded graphics (including
screenshots) etc, it makes a much better venue for support.
Very likely you are going to need to be clicking (or firing events) on
the elements which have 'on={somejavascript}' stuff attached to
them, perhaps pausing in between some of the script steps for a second
to allow the client side code to do it's thing (otherwise, watir is
often 'too fast').

[wtr-general] Re: Handling a MAC Pro book File Upload window.
In general, you don't. because a normal user cannot either.
Hidden values are normally returned automatically by the browser when
a POST is performed when the other data is submitted, it's all under
the covers stuff that user's never see, and is one of the ways that
webservers keep track of which user is which, or try to prevent
spoofing of responses. Since watir is driving the browser you have no
need to worry about those things as they will be taken care of just as
they would if a user were interacting with the browser.
(those would be a concern if we were automating at the HTTP level,
instead of the UI level.. like doing loadtesting.. but not for watir
work)
Disabled elements would not normally be interacted with by a user
unless some client side script changes the state. That can happen
with a lot of fancy javascript controls that might for example set
something to be enabled when another object is clicked or mouseovered
etc. In general for that kind of thing you kinda have to reverse
engineer the page, (this is where the 'what events have been fired'
info becomes very useful) and may have to write stuff into your
scripts that does things like clicks on specific elements, or fires
specific events such as 'onmouseover' against some specific
element.Whenever you see something that 'reacts' such as a visual
change to the image, to the mouse moving over it, you can pretty much
be sure that this sort of event driven client side code is behind it

Another thing I noticed. Due to the path ending with
\criptDataFile.xls
It appers that the backslash followed by the two characters cr
is being interpeted as a Carridge Return. You can see this
in the error message:
No such file or directory - Users/josephfleck/Documents/Download
Docs/ iptDataFile.xls (Errno::ENOENT)
^
Notice the space instead of the characterscr indicating
that \cr was interpreted as a Carriage Return, not the first
two characters in the file name criptDataFile.xls
So try all these:
1. Use a full pathname, not a relative path (as previously mentioned)
Unless Ruby is running with the Root level of your Mac as it
working
directory, (which I'm pretty sure its not), then the Users
directory will not be a valid relative path.)
2. Remove the backslashes. They are not necessary on Mac/Linus OS,
(as previously mentioned), and may cause issues (e.g. \cr)
3. Always a good idea (as previously mentioned), to upgrade to the
latest version of the gems, (and Ruby if possible)
If you are also running safariWatir you may not be able to upgrade
to Ruby 1.9.x. I don't recall if safariWatir supports 1.9.x yet.
4. The space in the directory name should not be an issue, since the
full path is quoted, but whenever possible using directory
and file
[wtr-general] Re: watir-webdriver + protected mode in XP-IE8
It's still there in IE8. whether it enables or not depends on several things, browsing local subnet sites vs internet, settings for UAC if running of Vista or Win7, and if you started IE 'as administrator' or not. What I've found sometimes solves this kind of issue is to go into the Internet Security Properties UI and set all the zones that may be encountered when running a script to the same zone, most often 'trusted' Then also make sure your homepage, and the page displayed when any new tab is opened are also set the same way, that includes 'about:blank' and 'about:tabs. Another thing that can sometimes make a difference is opening up your command line session (that you run your scripts from) 'as administrator' as this can affect the security settings in an IE session launched via that CMD window. What's happening is that as a type of protection against cross site scripting attacks, whenever the browser changes security zones, it basically destroys the instance that was running in the old context, and creates a new one. When that happens the underlaying identification of the window changes, and watir looses connection to the browser. You need to either attach, or use the watir-webdriver methods to change to the appropriate browser window just as you would have to do if you had closed and re-opened IE. That's probably not accurate in a very technical sense, but it's close enough to understand the nature of the problem. For more info, see here http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ie/archive/2008/03/11/ie8-and-loosely-coupled-ie-lcie.aspx and/or do a bunch of googling for protected/protection mode and IE8 On Oct 18, 10:45 am, RJ rj412@gmail.com wrote: Getting following error msg: Selenium::WebDriver::Error::NoSuchDriverError: Unexpected error launching Internet Explorer.

[wtr-general] click_no_wait does not work the second time when autoIt is used to handle the file download box
Hi every1,
I am facing the problem where I call the method click_no_wait on a
control which displays a File Download box. It works fine for the
1st time. i use Auto It to handle the file download box and save the
file at a particular location. Now, when I try to use the
click_no_wait on the same control, it won't display the File Download
box, but If i refresh the browser before calling the click_no_wait, it
will display the File Download box. So, my question is that is it the
case that Auto It is not being released and thus click_no_wait cannot
find the control or is there something wrong with the implementation
of the click_no_wait method.
Environment:
OS: Microsoft XP SP2
Ruby : ruby 1.8.6 patchelevel 398
Watir : 1.8.1
Following is the way I am using the control
def click_export_button
control = browser.button(:id,'export-button')
$DEBUG = true
#browser.refresh #- If this line is not commented, the dialog
appears
control.click_no_wait #-- I replace click_no_wait with click and/or
click! and the code freezes, so the control is found
download_file(C:\\test.csv)
$DEBUG = false
end
Here's the code for downloading the file
def download_file(filePath = nil)
autoIt = WIN32OLE.new(AutoItX3.Control)
timeout = 10
fileDownloadWindowTitle = File Download
handle = autoIt.WinWait(fileDownloadWindowTitle, Do you want to
open or save this file?, timeout)
retVal = nil
unless (handle.eql? @autoItError)
autoIt.WinActivate(fileDownloadWindowTitle)
autoIt.ControlClick(fileDownloadWindowTitle, , Save)
saveWindowTitle = Save As
windowHandle = autoIt.WinWaitActive(saveWindowTitle, ,
timeout)
if (windowHandle == 1)
retVal = save_file(saveWindowTitle, autoIt, filePath) #--
function to save the file to the location
end
else
puts Unable to download the file
end
autoIt.ole_free
return retVal
end
Here's the error which I am getting
ruby -e $:.unshift('c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/watir-1.8.1/lib/
watir/win32ole').unshift('c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/
