Re: [Selenium-users] Setting/Changing "text" where the INPUT Type = File

[Alexandre Garel]

Mike Taber a écrit : Anyone have thoughts on how to set/change the text in a form (field), where the input type is File?  <INPUT TYPE=file NAME="required_file">   I can locate the element and get focus set on the input 'box' but I cannot find a way to set/change the value. Since I can manually type in a filename and path, I would like to simulate this for some of our tests. I think it's a scripting security issue, since _javascript_ may not be able to fill a file selection box  (if it was couple with a form submit it would enable a web page to load arbitrary files from your system !). Can't see a simple solution for this ! Maybe security policies on firefox as discussed on a thread about it on 18/10, may resolve it. I think you shall give your site UniversalFileRead as seen on http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/components/signed-scripts.html Not easy ! Sorry can't help more. Alex.
