Re: [Wtr-general] custom attributes
Hi Paul, You can use xpath to address the elements having custom attributes. For example, to access the following input tag input type=text name=aa mytag=paul using xpath the code would look like this: inText = ie.text_field(:xpath , //[EMAIL PROTECTED]'paul']/) puts inText Regards, Prema On 1/29/07, Paul Rogers [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Some one asked me off list if they could access the mytag part of some html like the following input type = text name = aa mytag=paul With the 1.5.1-1145 gem you can do this: puts ie.text_field(:index,1).ole_object.mytag returns 'paul' this doesnt seem to work though: ie.text_field(:mytag ,/p/).flash causes a MissingWayOfFindingObjectException Hope that helps others too.

Re: [Wtr-general] Why does Watir sometimes not open an IE window,
Thank you both for your replies, but no I am not using the -b option to make IE run hidden. This occurs sometimes with both IE6 and IE7. It seems to be unclear what causes this mysterious behavior. For example I set up a windows scheduled task to run a batch file that runs one of my watir scripts, and when that task begins an IE OLE server connection is obviously made, but the IE window never appears for the duration of the test. But when I double click on the batch file without the task, the IE window usually appears. Nothing has changed execpet that instead of the Windows task scheduler running the batch file, I myself am double clicking on it to run it. Also I only have one screen, and nothing special really going on. Any other ideas?

I just resolved my issue with this - you're right, it's not Watir at all, rather it had to do with the scheduled task. In the cases where I did not see the browser window, this was because I was logged in as a different user than the run user that the scheduled task contained. So I changed my scripts to use the current user as the run user and that fixed it!

Re: [Wtr-general] how to populate hidden text area?
I forgot to mention in my previous email that on irb, this solution is
working as displayed below. But in IE, it does not since the text field is a
required field and expecting a value at the time of clicking the submit
button. I need some way to overlook that required flag of the field.
Thanks

try using the value method:
@ie.text_field(:name, ..).value='some text'
the set method fires all appropriate evens, and generally obeys what the web

value= will get round that

Re: [Wtr-general] url for link
The best way to do this is to completely seperate your markup (html)
from your behaviour (js). Your link should actually point to a real URL
that works in case someone has JS turned off. This way you can select
the link with ie.link(:url, 'linkurl').
If you give the url a unique id or even a class that all ajax urls will
use, you can use JS (most likely a JS library) to select the links and
add event handlers to them (and possibly parse the url to understand
what the request params are), making the AJAX call and killing the event
so the browser doesn't actually request the page. That's how I would do it.
