Re: [wtr-general] Re: Stop Firefox?
the above method works fine but the problem is sometimes the page needs more time than you mention in such cases it will fail you can use a function called wait until if you know the next element you are going to test On Wed, Apr 7, 2010 at 4:05 PM, Nate nate.s.bar...@gmail.com wrote: very cool.

Can I override the wait method through my script or do I have to do that through the source? On Apr 7, 11:49 am, Ethan notet...@gmail.com wrote: That is tricky. Watir generally should wait until the page is loaded until it tries to do anything, or it will probably end up interacting with a partially-loaded page where the elements that you try to use don't exist yet. But, if the application never says the page is loaded, there's no way to know when that is. You could override the #wait method to just sleep for some constant amount of time, perhaps. That's my best thought. On Wed, Apr 7, 2010 at 14:42, Nate nate.s.bar...@gmail.com wrote: Any suggestions? -- Before posting, please readhttp://watir.com/support.

[wtr-general] Re: Issue trying to click on a span element using safariwatir
generally i feel span doesnot support text refer to supported methods by element in watir wiki but confirm with others anyways try this browser.span(:text, /.*butterfly/).click ravi On Thu, Nov 19, 2009 at 2:57 PM, Tiffany Fodor tcfo...@comcast.net wrote: Hi! Since you're already using a regex, could you do this: browser.span(:text, /butterfly/).click or do you have multiple spans with 'butterfly' in the text? If so, could you specify the one you want using it's index? browser.span(:text = /butterfly/, :index = 3).click Also, it might help to determine if this issue is limited to safariwatir or if it happens in other flavors of watir as well. Have you tried the command on an IE or Firefox browser in irb?

Since 1.6.5 changes the way .visible? works, we decided to go back to 1.6.2 and make sure everything was ok there. We removed watir, commonwatir and firewatir and verified that everything was uninstalled. After that, we did the following: C:\ gem install watir -v 1.6.2 ERROR: Error installing watir: firewatir requires commonwatir (= 1.6.5, runtime) C:\ gem list --local *** LOCAL GEMS *** (removed unnecessary gems) ... commonwatir (1.6.2) ...
