[wtr-general] Re: How to wait until an element is visible on a page
http://wiki.openqa.org/display/WTR/How+to+wait+with+Watir I've used this: while (not $ie.html.include? "my html") puts "not there yet ..." sleep 5 end You can also use $ie.text.include? & there are probably other ones too, but that's all I seem to need. You could also put in a timeout limit as well.

[wtr-general] How to check if toggle link is open or closed
I have a javascript link that toggles a section of additional options open and closed. I can click on it to open & close: $ie.link(:text, /More Choices/).click I can find it: irb(main):050:0* puts $ie.links type: id: name: value: disabled: false href: javascript:toggleRows('fields'); inner text: Hide/Show More Choices -- and -- irb(main):050:0* puts $ie.text Hide/Show More Choices But I can't figure out how to do a check on whether it's open or closed. From the user's perspective the text changes between "Hide" and "Show" accordingly but don't know where the code indicates which is engaged. I've searched around quite a bit but haven't found anything to help. Suggestions? Here is what I think is the relevant code. Let me know if that's not sufficient. Also, the website is a subscription site but I can give a temporary login if someone emails me for it. More Choices -- Before posting, please read http://watir.com/support.

George, you are my new best friend. I can now check whether or not a field in the More Choices is visible or not. Thanks!

[wtr-general] Re: how do i select from ctrls?
Since you're in beginner mode, you may want to download Webmetrics RIA Script Recorder. You can see the code it creates and can cut and paste it into your scripts. It doesn't work on everything, but will get you started.

[wtr-general] new page has no focus
There are a couple of spots in my application where nothing happens. I think it's because a page with no defaulted active field (ie., blinking cursor). Can I get watir to "activate" these pages? I've searched in the archives and found a focus command: $ie.text_field(:id, 'name'').focus() but it doesn't do the trick. Only with me clicking on the webpage, will this command and any others that I try in my script continue to run. Until I click on the page nothing happens. Has anyone run into this? thanks, Kim -- Before posting, please read http://watir.com/support. In short: search before you ask, be nice.

It's completely loaded and will just sit there patiently waiting until I click on it with the mouse.

Since programming isn't my knack, I wanted to check if there was something that WATIR/Ruby could do to handle it. I can get the developers to put a default start point/focus into the app. It won't be the first time I pester them with my agenda....*THIS* I have a knack for. :o) Thanks Tiffany!

[wtr-general] Re: How to click on a table cell based on the text string that I know. Ex:- Wilmington.
One other way that I figure out how to select a certain cell or button is to use a freeware capture/playback tool called Script Recorder. I'll set it to record and click on what I want and the code will almost always be generated (it doesn't handle java popups). Then I cut it and paste it into what I'm working on. You can find it at http://www.webmetrics.com/products/script_recorder.html.
