We have found something really strange I'd like to share just in case someone can shed a light.
We have a program that runs fine on several machines. There is one of them where it runs if it is called from the command line, but behaves strangely if called with the Windows task manager. Printlining has shown the back button gives different HTML in some places, and there are some strange things like clicking in a link just reported by show_links in the previous line fails to find the element. This is a site with nested frames and we are going back and forth in one of them. I could understand that in some particular software the program had problems, but it puzzles me that the behaviour is different from the command line and as a task. The user in both cases is the same one. The system is XP SP1. There's no doubt the task runs the same script that runs in the command line (and in several computers). We don't rely on environment variables. Is there any known gotcha with explorer as COM object in that context? We eventually fixed it changing the navigation here and there, by trial and error, but I would like to understand what could originate that problem. -- fxn _______________________________________________ Wtr-general mailing list [email protected] http://rubyforge.org/mailman/listinfo/wtr-general
