Re: [wtr-general] Re: How do I find the id for element which has a label ?
I think probably I did not ask correctly. The labels for the fields are generated dynamically. I do not know which id it will have. So how do I find a field id or sst a field whose label is created dynamically ?

Re: [wtr-general] Re: How do I find the id for element which has a label ?
I see text Inv 20100829 amount on the screen and box next to it for me to
assign the amount.
I have been trying to use various methods to find this element and I think
finally found a way as I am typing this e-mail. I am not finished yet. but
it looks as follows. I wrote a method to identify element by label. One I am
satisfied with final product I will send you the method again.
def check_elemnet_by_lable(text1)
for i in 1..50
if @ie.text_field(:index, i).exists?
p @ie.label(:index, i).text
#p @ie.text_field(:index, i).text
x = @ie.label(:index, i).text
p x
if @ie.label(:index,i).text.include? #{text1}
p found it
# do whatever needs to be done.
end
else
break
end
end
end

[wtr-general] Re: How do I find the id for element which has a label ?
from your code snip it appears you know what the label text is so
myId = ie.label(:text,'the text string').attribute_value('for')
# Should return the assoicated id tag to the input
ie.text_field(:id,myId).set('blah blah'0
See: http://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_label.asp for label tags

Re: [wtr-general] Re: How do I find the id for element which has a label ?
Here is the final product
def check_element_by_lable(text1)
# this method will find element by lable and return the corresponding
index value.
# if lable is not found it returns 0.
for i in 1..50
if @ie.text_field(:index, i).exists?
p @ie.label(:index, i).text
#p @ie.text_field(:index, i).text
#x = @ie.label(:index, i).text
#p x
if @ie.label(:index,i).text.include? #{text1}
p found it
break
end
else
i = 0
break
end
end
# return index
i
end
Thank you,
Yadula.

You can't set a label, you need to use the input (known in watir as text_field) @ie.text_field(:id = 'adjustment_invoices_ attributes_6_amount').set '16' -- Before posting, please read http://watir.com/support.
