Re: [wtr-general] Multiple browsers
Thanks Filipin
Its working
\below is the code
ie2 = Watir::IE.attach(:title,'welcome')
ie2.send_keys('{TAB}') // As I have only one link in the page
ie2.send_keys('{ENTER}')
thanks

If you are attaching to regular browser window, there is no need for
send_keys, you should use something like this:
browser.link(how, what).click
Example:
browser.link(:index => 1).click

[wtr-general] Re: Output to xls or .cvs file
I would find what is nil. check line 78 of your ffscript to see what is
happening there.
On a side note, I would restructure the loop you are using.
this is assuming that the a array has 30 elements or that you always want to
process only 30 elements.
for x in 0..30 do
ff.div(:id, a[x]).fireEvent("onmouseup")
end
If you want to get every element, you could never worry about size changes
to Array a if you did this:
a.each { |x|
ff.div(:id, x).fireEvent("onmouseup")
}
Goodluck,
Dave

[wtr-general] Re: Measure response time with fireEvent("onmouseup")
Yeah, if it's not reloading the entire page that Watir is not going to
automatically give you a time
And getting an exact time is going to be very tricky since as far as I
know watir can only sleep in whole second increments. So if you
devise some kind of loop that waits for a particular element to be
present, you are not going to get performance numbers that mean much.
You're probably still going to need to devise a means to tell when
it's done updating the page, and wait for that to happen before the
script proceeds. But performance metrics will have to come from an
outside source, such as fiddler or some other monitor looking at the
HTTP traffic.

[wtr-general] Re: Click on links on a dynamic pane
Credit goes to Bret and Brian for choosing Ruby as the language when
they first set about to create watir..
However the .parent method is purely a Watir thing, I don't know who
came up with the idea of doing that, but it's a GREAT addition to
Watir.
and just call me Chuck
('van der Linden' is rather a lot to type, and most of us go by our
first-names anyway, not our family names)
