Hallo,
with the following code i got i working on Windows with IE and Firefox
(for Linux you might need to omit or change the conversion to a
different encoding than CP1252).
The first part i got from the other thread "Watir utf-8 (japnese)
support".
It might not work for Japanese strings, because the Windows encoding
does not contain these characters, but for European characters its
fine.
The additional elements (dd, dt, dl, strong) might be useful for you.
Regards,
Frank
# set encoding
$KCODE = "u"
WIN32OLE.codepage = WIN32OLE::CP_UTF8
require 'iconv'
module FireWatir
class DD < NonControlElement
TAG='DD'
end
class DL < NonControlElement
TAG='DL'
end
class DT < NonControlElement
TAG='DT'
end
class STRONG < NonControlElement
TAG='STRONG'
end
class TextField
def doKeyPress( value )
# do not ask me why
value = Iconv.conv('CP1252', 'UTF-8', value)
@o.value = value
fire_key_events
end
end
end
