File Upload Dialog Box coding Issue.

[tapan]

Hi Team,

We are creating generic functions for Upload dialog box which is displayed to the user when he clicks the button e.g. Browse
  There are two problems which we are facing.

1. The button is of HTMLinputfile type and we are unable to click it, using below code.
     // myManager.ActiveBrowser.Frames[0].Find.ById<HtmlInputFile>(objID).Click();

2. Once the browse button is clicked manually the windows open dialog box is displayed.
We have kept the code in Debug mode (visual studio  c#) and Telerik app closes closes the dialog box automatically.
Again if we click the browse button the windows open dialog box is displayed, and once we start our debugging we are able to upload files successfully using the below code.
=============
            try
            {
                FileUploadDialog fileDialog = new FileUploadDialog(Manager.Current.ActiveBrowser, InputFile, DialogButton.OPEN, objID);
                Manager.Current.DialogMonitor.AddDialog(fileDialog);
                Manager.Current.DialogMonitor.Start();

                // Wait Until Dialog is Handled.
                fileDialog.WaitUntilHandled(50000);
                Manager.Current.DialogMonitor.Stop();
.............................................

Inputfile="test.jpg",
objid = Object ID or the windows dialog box header

FYI: This works fine with record and playback.

Hello Tapan,

For the first problem, I'll need some more info in order to properly diagnose the issue. What exactly happens when you execute the code? Is there an error displayed or it passes without error and without clicking the button?

As for the second problem, I you add and start the DialogMonitor after you click the button to start the upload. those lines must be before that the upload button is clicked or the dialog will not be properly handled, which is exactly the issue you are experiencing. Here is a working sample:

Manager.LaunchNewBrowser(BrowserType.InternetExplorer);
ActiveBrowser.NavigateTo("http://encodable.com/uploaddemo/");
var x = new FileUploadDialog(ActiveBrowser, @"C:\source.txt", DialogButton.OPEN);
Manager.DialogMonitor.AddDialog(x);
Manager.DialogMonitor.Start();
Element e2 = Find.ById("uploadname1");
ActiveBrowser.Actions.Click(e2);
Element e3 = Find.ById("uploadbutton");
ActiveBrowser.Actions.Click(e3);
ActiveBrowser.WaitUntilReady();

Please also check out this documentation article on "Handling FileUpload Dialogs" . 

Hope to here from you soon!

Hi Tapan,

I apologize, the last line of the code posted below should be:

x.WaitUntilHandled(10000);

Hi Plamem,

Thanks for your reply.
As per your suggestions we invoked the handler before the browser button (click operation), but we are still facing same issue.
We are still working on it and will give you an update on Monday 29th.

Hopefully it works, else I would be giving you more details screenshots, code etc for your insight.

I've also run into the same Issue. I copied the code provided into a new project. The result of that test is that a OpenFileDialog appears. It is not handled by the DialogMonitor, and will hang and timeout. I'm running on Microsoft Visual Studio 2012, Windows 7, .Net Framework 4.5, 64-bit Operating System

[TestMethod]
public void FileUploadDialog()
{
    Init();
    _manager.Settings.UnexpectedDialogAction = UnexpectedDialogAction.DoNotHandle;
    //_manager.LaunchNewBrowser(BrowserType.FireFox);
    _manager.LaunchNewBrowser(BrowserType.InternetExplorer);
    Window brw = _manager.ActiveBrowser.Window;
    //brw.Maximize();
    _manager.ActiveBrowser.NavigateTo("http://encodable.com/uploaddemo/");
    _manager.ActiveBrowser.WaitUntilReady();

    var x = new ArtOfTest.WebAii.Win32.Dialogs.FileUploadDialog(_manager.ActiveBrowser, @"C:\dev\test.txt", DialogButton.OPEN);

    _manager.DialogMonitor.Start();
    _manager.DialogMonitor.AddDialog(x);

    HtmlInputFile choose = _manager.ActiveBrowser.Find.ById<HtmlInputFile>("uploadname1");
    choose.MouseClick(MouseClickType.LeftDoubleClick);


    x.WaitUntilHandled(10000);
}

Hi John,

Your code looks about right, though I don't see your initialization or clean up code. I've attached a complete working project for you to follow as an example.
