(long post!)
Hello, I'm creating a little helper class for Watir that can read the
text from an IE Javascript popup and click buttons. It works great for
popups that are created by links. E.g., for the following HTML:
<test_html>
<script language="Javascript">
function showAlert() { alert("Alert showing!"); }
</script>
<p>Link:<br><a href="javascript:showAlert();")'>Click this link</a></p>
</test_html>
I can put the following in a Watir script:
<link_code>
require 'watir'
@ie = Watir::IE.new
@ie.goto("file://C:/test.html")
puts "Working with popup from links:"
jsh = JavascriptPopupHandler.new(@ie, 'OK')
jsh.pauseDuration = 0.1
jsh.handle { @ie.link
text, "Click this link").click }
puts "Here's the text that was showing in the popup: #{jsh.text}"
</link_code>
The above code outputs:
<output>
Working with popup from links:
Here's the text that was showing in the popup: Alert showing!
</output>
The jsh.handle starts a monitor thread that looks for the Javascript
popup, and then executes the block. When it finds a popup, it can pull
the text out of the popup and click the appropriate button (by the
button caption). It works when I pass in a link click in the block.
The code doesn't work for form buttons though, and I can't figure out
why. E.g., for the following html:
<form name="f1" method="post" action="test.html"
onsubmit="javascript:showAlert()">
<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Click this button" />
</form>
The following doesn't work:
<form_watir_code>
# This next call hangs when the popup pops up.
puts "from button:"
jsh.handle { @ie.buttonvalue, "Click this button").click }
puts "Here's the text that was showing in the popup: #{jsh.text}"
</form_watir_code>
This is a bit annoying, and it might be easily fixable ... I was hoping
someone might have some ideas about how to fix it.
Here's the scratch code:
