Hi,
I'm new to Watir and Ruby, but from what I can see so far we could
really benefit greatly from using Watir to automate testing of our
web-based products.
Our main product uses a javascript HTML-editor (much like TinyMCE[1]) to
let the user create documents to be published.
So far I've not managed to in any way to interact with this HTML-editor
using Watir. Neither manipulating text in the textarea nor accessing the
toolbar buttons works. When trying to input text in the textarea I
always get an error like this:
irb(main):026:0> ie.text_field(:id, /elm1/).set("Test")
WIN32OLERuntimeError: focus
OLE error code:800A083E in htmlfile
Can't move focus to the control because it is invisible, not
enabled, or of a type that does not accept the focus.
HRESULT error code:0x80020009
Exception occurred.
from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/watir.rb:3399:in
method_missing'
from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/watir.rb:3399:in `set'
from (irb):26
from :0
I realize I might be trying to access the wrong object here, but I've
tried others with no luck. I've also tried using name instead of id.
If anyone can help me sorting out this problem that would be greatly
appreciated.
[1] TinyMCE is a platform independent web based Javascript HTML WYSIWYG
editor control released as Open Source under LGPL by Moxiecode
Systems AB. It has the ability to convert HTML TEXTAREA fields or
other HTML elements to editor instances.
