Selenium selecting a new Window

Wed Sep 28, 2011 12:03 am

Hi,.

We have started usng Selenium but running into problems selecting a new window and closing it. It simple does not recongnize it at all,. I have tried various opton like getallwindows name/id etc but it still seems to pick up the main windiow. I have treid select frame , window focus, storeattributes , loads of things but to no avail. It is probably straight forward but cannot get an resolution

here is the code for the close report attached. For some reason I cannot copy it here

Code:: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head> </head> <frameset border="1" framespacing="1" rows="40,*"> <frame id="Reporttoolbar" scrolling="No" noresize="" src="rtoolbar.htm?Id=01B2_02923E90_01A852F9_00000000" name="Reporttoolbar"> <html> <head> </head> <body class="REPTOOLBAR" marginheight="3" topmargin="3" onfocus="ClosePopup();return true;"> <script type="text/javascript"> </script> <table class="InnerWindow" cols="9" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" width="1"> <tbody> <tr> <td> </td> <td nowrap=""> <a title="Close Report" href="/Report/Report.htm?Id=01B2_02923E90_01A852F9_00000000&Close"></a> </td

I think this might help. As i am into videos. The mail is sent to the E-Mail, where i have to get the link and its dynamic.

storeEval / alert
chooseOkOnNextConfirmation
click / link=wwwcom
selectwindow / window id . Now it will pop another window with the blank window. now use
Selectwindow / null
windowFocus . Hope this is what u expected.

Thankyou

which language you r using and in which browser u want to run it in IE and Firefox.
in both browser there are different ways to focus on pop ups or new window.

I am also facing exactly the same problem. Unable to bring focus onto the new window using selenium.selectWindow(), selectFrame etc.

I am using it from java and running on firefox.

Please help.

hi,
when there is any another web page opens to focus on new window first

use
thread.currentThread().sleep(1000)

and then use selenium.

to get focus in firefox u can use
selenium.selectWindow(selenium.getAllWindowNames()[selenium.getAllWindowNames().length-1])

and for IE
selenium.selectWindow("Window title");

hope this can help u

Hi,

Thanks for the quick reply. Actually when i execute
selenium.click("pt1:pc1:t1:1:gi1::icon"); (this is my component id) and this opens up a new page and this page is a javascript enabled page i guess ..it is fundementally showing zip file's content (which is deployed on same domain).

so after this page opens up, i executed the i used the one u mentioned and it gave below error: "Could not find window with title 2118w71q1_1".

Actually if i use selenium.open(with the direct URL here, ) and then do selenium.selectWindow(Mywin) then the focus seems to be coming ... but i cannot use selenium.open() because i would not know the complete URL everytime.

Also the 2nd problem after i get focus on the window is to search for a given string in the page for which i have to get focus on the 2nd frame. That is also not happening Sad

Could you please help ?

Thanks.

hi
I think you need to use selenium.getWindowTitle() method name and pass the title name as i explained u last time.

if u r using Firefox then it works but it might give sme problem in IE.

one more think you can use

String baseUrl="";
and later u can set the url in this method so that current url will always available to u.

Try this.

Try with option
selectWindow()
Just provide the window title name withing ().
For Ex:
Window Title is Testing, then
command : selectWindow
title : Testing

To know the title of the newly opened window follow the steps:
Go to the new window
Right click->view page source
Press ctrl+F.
Type title and serch.
You will get the title of the new window

Selenium IDE is a firefox plugin.
Firefox blocks the newly opening windows/tabs when you replay the scripts recorded in selenium IDE.
You should change the firefox settings to allow opening of new windows/tabs.
Hope this helps.

Thanks.
