Jarmo Pertman commented on WTR-485:
-----------------------------------
The problem is that you're trying to fire a non-existing event - "change". The
correct event would be "onchange". I modified your html to have an onChange
handler registerd to it:
<select name="select" onchange="alert(1)">
Now if you select other value, you will get an JavaScript alert window, try it
out manually.
Now, this triggers the window too:
b.select_list(:name, 'select').fire_event('onchange')
And if you select the value:
b.select_list(:name, 'select').select('value2')
So, as a matter of fact, it does trigger the "onChange" event automatically
too. If you have some other custom events binded to that select then they won't
be triggered of course and you'd have to fire them manually. If you cannot fire
then with #fire_event, then try #execute_script and use the JavaScript
framework which is used on the page like jQuery, Prototype or some other.
May i close this issue now or are you still having problems?

> Key: WTR-485
> URL: http://jira.openqa.org/browse/WTR-485
> Project: Watir
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Inputs
> Affects Versions: 1.8.0
> Environment: Windows XP SP3 (64-bit), Internet Explorer
> 8.0.6001.18702 (32-bit)
> Reporter: Michael M
> Priority: Major
>
> Watir is able to fire an event for a select list if there are events
> of the required type registered to the element. If, however, there are
> no objects registered via JavaScript to the select element, then it
> fails.
> Versions:
> Ruby 1.9.2p180
> Watir 1.9.1.rc1
> HTML Code Sample:
> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://
> www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml";>
> <head>
> <title>fire event sample</title>
> </head>
> <body>
> <select name="select">
> <option value="1">value1</option>
> <option value="2">value2</option>
> </select>
> </body>
> </html>
> Ruby Code Sample:
> require 'watir'
> browser = Watir::Browser.new
> browser.goto "http://<path.to>/testPage.html"
> browser.select_list(:name, 'select').fire_event('change')
> Expected Result:
> Code should execute without any errors, firing events if there were
> any, and otherwise doing nothing (just like the equivalent behaviour
> in JavaScript).
> Actual Result:
> C:/Ruby192/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/watir-1.9.1.rc1/lib/watir/
> element.rb:339:in `method_missing': (in OLE method `fireEvent': )
> (WIN32OLERuntimeError)
> OLE error code:80070057 in htmlfile
> Invalid argument.
> HRESULT error code:0x80020009
> Exception occurred.
