I descided to add the method get_frames and refactor show_frames in
the firefox.rb file as follows:
now i can call get_frames and recieve the frames in an array with
their attributes.
BTW if you do this you wont be able to get back to the root document
unless you also add the methods root to the firefox.rb file as well -
see below.
def root
set_browser_document
end
def get_frames
jssh_request_frames
end
def show_frames
frames = jssh_request_frames
puts "There are #{frames.size} frames"
frames.each_index do |index|
puts "frame: name: #{frames[index].name}"
puts " index: #{index+1}"
end
end
alias showFrames show_frames
def jssh_request_frames
jssh_command = "var frameset = #{WINDOW_VAR}.frames;
var elements_frames = new Array();
for(var i = 0; i < frameset.length; i++)
{
var frames = frameset[i].frames;
for(var j = 0; j < frames.length; j++)
{
elements_frames.push(frames
[j].frameElement);
}
}
elements_frames.length;"
jssh_command.gsub!("\n", "")
$jssh_socket.send("#{jssh_command};\n", 0)
length = read_socket().to_i
frames = Array.new(length)
for i in 0..length - 1 do
frames[i] = Frame.new(self, :jssh_name, "elements_frames[#
{i}]")
end
frames
end
