Patch for the bug in firewatir where text elements were not being identified submitted. http://jira.openqa.org/browse/WTR-266
>2. Working with links using the link text may be different with >FireWatir. For example, my application's login page has a link with >text "Login". >the command fox.link(:text, 'Login').click gives the following error: >Watir::Exception::UnknownObjectException: Unable to locate element, >using :text, "Login" > from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/firewatir-1.6.0/lib/ >firewatir/MozillaBaseElement.rb:967:in `assert_exists' > from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/firewatir-1.6.0/lib/ >firewatir/MozillaBaseElement.rb:1125:in `click' > from (irb):58 >but using a regex for the link text works - fox.link(:text, / >Login/).click >I've used the DOM inspector in Firefox and found that there may be a >leading and trailing space around the text, so I tried fox.link(:text, >' Login ').click but that doesn't work either. >Is this just a difference in working with Firefox versus IE? Clicking >on the link using text 'Login' works fine in IE. I'll keep working on >this here to see if it's just something strange with our application. >Yep - here's the login page for our production site: >https://producer.icat.com/icatsss/Main.startup.do --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Watir General" group.
