[wtr-general] Re: Browser.url does not return proper URL immediately after a browser.goto statement
Hi.
Actually, it doesn't matter if () or {} is used. You just have to use
some non-alpha character - for example, let's say that you want to add
elements like {one {two {three then you cannot use %w{}, but it would
be wise to use %w() instead.
Anyway, here are some examples:
irb(main):004:0 %w(one two three)
= [one, two, three]
irb(main):005:0 %w{one two three}
= [one, two, three]
irb(main):007:0 %w%one two three%
= [one, two, three]
irb(main):008:0 %w!one two three!
= [one, two, three]
As you can see, they all return same arrays. It's same as using %q or
%Q for strings, that it is up to the developer, which character to use
for string start and end.
So, like:
irb(main):009:0 str = %q(this is a string with some and '
characters, but it works fine)
= this is a string with some \ and ' characters, but it works fine
Cheers,
Jarmo

Hi Kevin,
I did a quick check...I think you just need whitespace, not quotes to
separate your data using w{}. You'll also need to use {} instead of
().

[wtr-general] Re: Browser.url does not return proper URL immediately after a browser.goto statement
Let me comment on my own post with an example. I might be having a
Ruby problem and not a Watir problem. Here is what I am trying to do:
require 'watir'
Watir::Browser.default = 'firefox'
browser = Watir::Browser.new
sites = %w(www.google.com www.yahoo.com www.microsoft.com)
sites.each do
|url|
puts going to website: #{url}
browser.goto(url)
puts Browser went to: #{browser.url}
end

I'm trying to test that a web application always redirects back to a

you're not logged in.
First, I do:
browser.goto(http://www.pagethatredirects.com;)
Then, I look at the contents of @browser.url and I get about: blank,
which is what my firefox install opens up to.
From what I've read, Watir/firewatir should be waiting until the page
is loaded before executing the browser.url statement. I'm basing that
on:http://wiki.openqa.org/display/WTR/How+to+wait+with+Watir
However, that isn't really working the way I expect. Should I be using
wait_until?

[wtr-general] Re: Browser.url does not return proper URL immediately after a browser.goto statement
Yep, that was exactly it! I ended up getting a debugger going and
found out that my strings had double quotes. I must've misread
something when looking up how to do this...
Thanks!
