Hello Balakrishna,

to make sure that it is a modal dialog, checkt the definition: "In user interface design, a modal window (often called modal dialog because the window is almost always used to display a dialog box) is a child window, which has to be closed before the user can return to operating the parent application." (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modal_window)

Regards,
Christian

If you're using the latest Watir 1.5 and Ruby 1.8.2, you can use ie.modal_dialog, Watir 1.4 doesn't support modals:

Hello all,

I am having a modal ( without address bar) popup window which has a form and I need to fill some data into the same. I tried attaching the window using the title, but it does seem to recognize the window. I also tried to attaching using url but not successful either. Any suggestions is appreciated.

Thanks

Balu
