I've also tried to ignore the <BR> by using Regexp and wildcards
#Excel Value
123 fake street*
Crookston, MN 56716
#I'm trying to replace * in excel with a wild card to ingnore the <BR>
tag
regxmyvar = Regexp.new text.gsub("*","/\.*/") - Does this look correct?
puts regxmyvar
<?-mix:123 fake street\/.*
Crookston, MN 56716)
#This still didn't work.
if $ie.p(:text=>/#{regxmyvar}/,:index=>1).exists?
puts "MIH3"
end

Subject: [wtr-general] Comparing Tag Text when a <BR> Exists
html
<P>
#text - 123 fake street
<BR>
#text - Crookston, MN 56716
>From Excell
text = 123 fake street
Crookston, MN 56716
$ie.p(:text=>text,:index=>index).exists?
puts "Pass"
else
puts "Failed" - Makes it here.
end
So I had the function insert the text into excel using: to see what
the text actually looks like with <BR> tages
ts_worksheet.range($results+$ts_row_nbr.to_s).Value =$ie.p
(:index=>1).text
It displayed the text Like
123 Fake Street
Crookston, MN 56716
If I copy that excel cell to the required cell the excel spread sheet
and run the test again it will pass.
The squares in the above were created using Expanded Ascii, but they
don't work when I manually add them in excel cell, so tell the maual
testers to use that when they see a <BR> take will not work.
Does anyone know a way to handle this?
I was thinking maybe using wild cards excel
123 Fake Street*
Crookston, MN 56716*
So everytime I see a * i use .gsub('*',/\.*/) but this will doesn't
work because I cannot convert a regular expression into a string.
Or I could create a function that formats the text to look like.
$ie.p(:text=>/\123 Fake Street/.*/Crookston, MN
56716,:index=>index).exists?
Can anyone help with a soluction to this?
Thanks,
Darin
