That is correct behavior. The getText() command actually got back the text
node of a DOM node.
But if there is no text node defined, it should be empty.
To make things easier, I will add getValue to the base UI object in 0.8.0 so
that all UI objects
can call getValue() method directly.
BTW, there are some subtle difference between getValue and getAttribute. See
the following JavaScript
implementation of getValue().
// Get the value of an <input> element
function getInputValue(inputElement) {
if (inputElement.type) {
if (inputElement.type.toUpperCase() == 'CHECKBOX' ||
inputElement.type.toUpperCase() == 'RADIO')
{
return (inputElement.checked ? 'on' : 'off');
}
}
if (inputElement.value == null) {
throw new SeleniumError("This element has no value; is it really a
form field?");
}
return inputElement.value;
}
That is to say, if you have a checkbox or a radio button, getValue will not
look at the "value" attribute, but the "checked" attribute instead.
Thanks,
Jian
