Hi Paul,
Thank you for your reply.
The problem i'm facing are not the expected end of statement errors. These do
not appear with Watir and my application.
The problem is a VBScript error where the document.all does not support the
value property.
In my two examples I was able to reproduce
Could you please post your fixed html + watir?
What exactly did you fix?
Could this be an environmental problem? Maybe i'm using a different IE (6) or
OS (W2K3) ??
Did you fix the error in both examples i posted?
This is error will completely shut down any Watir use at my company, and I am

I fixed that and some other problems, and it all works ok for me. Seems that
watir is doing the correct thing.

Hi Paul, thank you for your offering, here's the html and watir with which i
was able to reproduce the error. The thing i dont understand is why would the
watir click wrap a single object with a collection, whereas the manual click
does not.
lt;html
lt;head
lt;titleMy Pagelt;/title
lt;SCRIPT
ok, I'll take a look sometime today. Might not be till this evening though

Hi Paul, thank you
My best guess is the problem is with the data.set command. Watir just
jams the argument into the value parameter, whereas most pages have a
bunch of validation code that runs on it first. In other words, it is
likely that Watir is NOT running this validation code. If there is a
problem with
Hi Bret,
This is not specific to the page, i have it happening in other pages without
date text fields, in a form with only names, emails addresses, clicking on a
link also causes the error.
Therefore i do not think it is directly related to the date format.
Maybe i'll post another
Here's another case where it fails, although this html was making an expected
end of statement error that i was not able to be rid of (after switching from
the asp to just html), the document.all error is also reproduced.

Thanks so much for your reply and sorry for not posting that code initially.

I've just discovered another place where the same error comes up, however this
error does not disable the script like the other. (maybe because in the
previous the navigation occurs with a window.open whereas here a button is
clicked and the form is posted.)

Bret, thank you for your reply.
Well yes, the error is in that IE.attach, however the cause comes from the
previous line, because it did not execute a window.open vbscript command.
The window.open did not get to execute because of an error when getting the
value property out of a
Hello,
I'm in dire need to solve this issue, I might have to dump Watir altogether if
it is not resolved soon :((
I've definetly narrowed it down to some sort of type mismatch within the
vbscript engine. When i break the VBscript debugger, i cannot evaluate simple
vbscript dim variables,

Thank you for your reply and the helpful links Paul,
Yes, i reckon i am one of the few, nevertheless, i must auto-test the

other than the ones we're already making.
I sure appreciate your time and patience.
Thank you
Hello,
With the help of my coworkers, I've made some progress in identifying the
problem.

I should clarify that this is an intranet web application that only supports
IE, that is the reason why VBScript is acceptable.
Anyway, i changed my

What does the actual HTML look like for link you are clicking?
Maybe there is some kind of event that needs to be fired? My gut feeling is
that you are just 'clicking the wrong thing'.
Again, this is just a wild guess i really have no clue whats going on in here :)
Thank you all s much for your replies, i'll post what i'm doing in the hope
that you can replicate the error,
Here's my HTML

Thank you for your reply Paul.
I've doubled and tripled checked and there is not another element with the same
name, txtInitialDate
HOWEVER.
there is a hidden input with the name txtInitialDatePost
so maybe watir is matching with a regex? that would explain.
Is it possible to enumerate
