Re: [wtr-general] Can't use = sign in URL.
Neither of those worked. For now I am using this:
b.goto(properties.getUrl.gsub("\n",'') + 'source=' +
properties.getSource.gsub("\n",'') + '&' + 'xyzclubcode=' +
properties.getxyzclubcode.gsub("\n",'') + '&' + 'state=' +
properties.getState.gsub("\n",'') + '&' + 'zipcode=' +
properties.getZipcode.gsub("\n",''))
With some changes to my .rb file.
And a reformatting of the .txt properties file to:
url=http://Foo.Bar.com/Portal/quote?
source=club
xyzclubcode=212
state=VA
zipcode=20109
I'll try to get back to this issue for a better answer.
The links you sent earlier were somewhat helpful but I could not figure out
how to transform the information into usable commands.
I learned the %3D should replace the = sign.

Re: [wtr-general] Can't use = sign in URL.
For now, can I forget about the properties file, and have the Watir script put the url directly in the address bar? If that is possible I'll need the commands to do so. I got nowhere with the links you sent. When I add p properties.getUrl to my script the output is there minus anything to the right of the left most equal sign. Turns from this: http://FooBar.com/AP/quote?source=club&aaaclubcode212&state=CA&zipcode=90210 To: http://FooBar.com/AP/quote?source So it is ignoring all the the right of the equals sign as I expected.

Re: [wtr-general] Can't use = sign in URL.
I'm using Watir with Ruby 1.86.
I have a properties file that I point to when I fire up a Watir script.
properties = TemplateProperties.new("../properties/template_properties.txt")
Then it uses this:
b.goto(properties.getUrl)
to pull the correct url. I use several.
When I attempt to fire up a Watir script I do not get the website that I'm
looking for when I use the url in my previous (original) post, given to me
today to test with.
When I copy and paste the url into the browser address bar it works fine.
When I copy and paste the url into the browser address bar, up to the first
= sign I get the same result as when I try to fire it up in Watir.
So, I'm pretty sure Watir/Ruby interprets the = as something else. (like,
oh this must be a new row)
I did some research before I posted.
Someone else had a similar issue where the equals sign was replaced with
something like %3D. It worked for them, not for me.
