[wtr-general] Re: Hard to get to link
Thank you, John. I actually fat fingered something.. ie.link(:text, Map).href works just fine. I was thinking that it I had to daisy chain more elements to find what I was looking for, which is the case if there are forms found on a specific page, etc. Have a great day! -- Before posting, please read http://watir.com/support.

[wtr-general] IE File Download
Hi-
I followed Zeljko's examples on
http://wiki.openqa.org/display/WTR/File+Downloads
to implement File Downloads from Internet Explorer. In my script (see
below) once I get File Download popup, I tell it to focus on Save
buton, and then click it. I tried identifying Save button using
Save
[CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:2])
Save
It works, but inconsistently -- every now and then, when looping and
downloading maybe 5 files, my scripts get stuck at the File Download
popup, where Cancel button seems to be in focus.
I'm using:
ruby 1.8.7
watir 2.0.4
autoit v3.3.6.1 (32-bit)
IE 8.0 (32-bit)
Windows 7 (64-bit)
Any help would be appreciated,
-Mark
def save_file(filepath)
puts Saving #{filepath}
ai = WIN32OLE.new(AutoItX3.Control)
ai.WinWait(File Download, , 5) # 1) File Download, click Save
ai.ControlFocus(File Download, , [CLASS:Button; INSTANCE:2])
sleep 1
#ai.ControlClick(File Download, Save, left) #

Also as Zeljko suggests try using Watir::Browser.new instead of Watir::IE.new If that does not work, show us what you have for require statments etc at the top of your script.. You might also try updating to a newer version of Ruby (1.9.2) , but I don't think that's the problem, so I'd wait to do that after you get things working.

[wtr-general] Write to Excel

Here's my code:
require 'xls'
require 'watir'
xlFile = XLS.new('C:\MyFile.xlsx') #grab the data file;
myData = xlFile.getRowRecords(Symbol,Sheet1) #pull data records
from Range, Woksheet
myData.each do |record|
#Define records in the spreadsheet
what = record[Symbol]
#Search news
if @@ie.text.match(/keyword1/i)
xlFile.write2DArray(1, keyword1, Sheet1)
puts 1 keyword1 found***
else
puts 0 keyword1 not found
end
xlFile.close
end
This works:
xlFile.getRowRecords(Symbol,Sheet1) #range, worksheet
This does NOT work:
xlFile.write2DArray(1, keyword1, Sheet1) #value, range,
worksheet
Note that range is just a string found in my Excel sheet, so I have a
column header with Symbol and keyword1
Thank you,

Thank you, Tiffany!

Hi!
You're almost there.
I use Xls.rb as well and to check for blank rows, I usually use
something like this:
myData.each do |record|
if record['WHERE'] != ''
ie.frame(:name, main).text_field(:name,
'account').set(record['WHERE'])
ie.frame(:name, main).text_field(:name,
'item').set(record['WHAT'])
end
end
This will skip rows where the 'WHERE' column is blank.
I can't tell how many rows you're importing from your code, so if
you're not already, you may want to limit the number of rows you're
importing from Excel. I usually bring back about 5-10 rows past where
my data ends so that if I add a couple more rows, I won't have to
change the import range from Excel. You don't want to bring back all
the rows in the spreadsheet or your framework will need to check each.
Hope this helps!
