I'm just curious. Is the second window already there upon running the program? if not maybe you could try putting wait(5) before the attach just to be sure.
what's the exact error message? and what's the exact title of the page when you view the source? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Mike Harris Sent: Tuesday, August 30, 2005 7:19 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [Wtr-general] Connecting to a second window Thanks.I tried that and still had the same problem. I have just noticed that when I hover over the link with the mouse the path to the page for the second window is displayed in the status bar, but this does not include the name of the file. I am wondering if this is the problem. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Zeljko Filipin Sent: 30 August 2005 10:57 To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [Wtr-general] Connecting to a second window Try this $ieAbout = Watir::IE.attach(:title, /About KALIDO MDM/) instead of $ieAbout = IE.attach(:title, /About KALIDO MDM/) Zeljko -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike Harris Sent: Tuesday, August 30, 2005 11:53 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [Wtr-general] Connecting to a second window The last line put to the command console is attach failed.
