We can get the text from the popup using autoit, so i'm pretty sure WET can

Is it possible to pull the text contents out of JavaScript popups as well?
That would be a big bonus, particularly on pages that might use a lot of

or to validate the contents of them. I found SilkTest, one JavaScript popup
wasn't distinguishable from another.
Getting them handled well though would be a great start.
