[Selenium-users] RE: [Selenium-devel] Selenium failure

[Terry Simpson]

Hi. Thanks.   The bit of the code I was trying to save was the href.   I changed the storeAttribute to storeText and it works a treat now   Thanks again   Terry Simpson   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Guillaume Boudreau Sent: 21 October 2005 15:10 To: selenium-devel@lists.public.thoughtworks.org Subject: RE: [Selenium-devel] Selenium failure   Note: This should be on the user mailing list, not the devel. If you reply, please do at selenium-users@lists.public.thoughtworks.org   storeAttribute is used to store the attribute value of a tag. I don't think that's what you want to do. Maybe you want to use storeText... The error is probably caused by the fact that you're not using the correct syntax for storeAttribute, which is [EMAIL PROTECTED]...   Exactly what part of the HTML code you pasted do you want to save in the "banner1" variable ?   - Guillaume Boudreau   From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Terry Simpson Sent: Friday, October 21, 2005 5:59 AM To: selenium-devel@lists.public.thoughtworks.org Subject: [Selenium-devel] Selenium failure Hi. Hope someone can help. I am new to software testing and exploring the features in Selenium 0.6.0.   I’m trying to store an attribute using Xpath as a locator but Selenium is telling me there is a failure.   Using the same locator with clickAndWait action works fine   The message in the log console is listed below       ·                                Executing: |open | http://uat.pandanet.coop/cooptravel | | ·                                Executing: |storeAttribute | //[EMAIL PROTECTED]'ThreeBanner2']/[EMAIL PROTECTED] | banner1 | ·                                Unexpected Exception: number -> 51, description -> DOM-L3-XPath 0.0.3.0: Invalid _expression_, "_expression_ expected. //[EMAIL PROTECTED]'ThreeBanner2']/a[<--", message -> DOM-L3-XPath 0.0.3.0: Invalid _expression_, "_expression_ expected.//[EMAIL PROTECTED]'ThreeBanner2']/a[<--", code -> 51, name -> XPathException   The HTML code concerned is listed below   <div id="ThreeBanner2" class="BannerAd"><a href="http://www.holidayautos.co.uk/cgi-bin/liveweb.sh/QSearch.w?ctryref=GBR&lang=EN&aff=xcooptraveldirect" name="Holiday Car Hire"><img src="images/banners/carhire2wide.gif" width="230" height="60" alt="Holiday Car Hire" /></a></div>     Many thanks   Terry Co-operative IT is part of The Midcounties Co-operative West Midlands Co-operative Society (WMCS) and Oxford, Swindon and Gloucester Co-operative Society (OSG) have merged to form The Midcounties Co-operative.
