Hi everyone.

We are testing a web-application with framed main window, so our tests look lite that:

Settings mySettings = new Settings(BrowserType.FireFox, @"d:\");

mySettings.UnexpectedDialogAction = UnexpectedDialogAction.DoNotHandle;

Manager myManager = new Manager(mySettings);

myManager.Start();

myManager.LaunchNewBrowser();

myManager.ActiveBrowser.NavigateTo("file:///d:/test.html");

Element mybtn = myManager.ActiveBrowser.Frames[0].Find.ByName("press_me");

HtmlControl htmlControl = new HtmlControl(mybtn);

//fine in IE and FF

htmlControl.Click();

//error in FF only

htmlControl.MouseClick(MouseClickType.LeftClick);

//error in FF only

myManager.Desktop.Mouse.Click(MouseClickType.LeftClick, mybtn.GetRectangle());

//error in IE and FF

myManager.ActiveBrowser.Actions.Click(mybtn);

//error in FF and IE

myManager.ActiveBrowser.Actions.InvokeEvent(mybtn, ScriptEventType.OnClick);

myManager.Dispose();

Here you can see finding a button in the first frame and then clicking it in five different ways.

The html code is like that:

<html>

<head></head>

<frameset cols="25%,*,25%">

<frame src="frame_a.html" />

<frame src="frame_b.html" />

<frame src="frame_c.html" />

</frameset>

</html>

and the frame_a.html is

<html>

<body>

<input type="button" name="press_me" value="press_me" onclick="alert('Hello world!')"/>

</body></html>

But after I tested the code, I discovered that FF fails to click on it almost in every case, and IE fails in the last two.
Though the code and HTML page seem valid, could somebody, please, tell what is wrong?
Using IE 7, FF 3.6.7 and 3.5.1, WebAii 2.0 the lates build.

The error produced is like

Unhandled Exception: ArtOfTest.WebAii.Exceptions.ExecuteCommandException: Execut

eCommand failed!

InError set by the client. Client Error:

Hi Nelson,

and thanks for your help.

I don't know why, but the last piece of code doesn't work inf Firefox producing the following error:

InError set by the client. Client Error:

mozCommandProcessor: FindElement(): Tag collection is either empty or has less elements than the element occurrence requested.TagName: a, Occurrence Requested: 0, All Tags Collection length: 0

BrowserCommand

By the way, on this test page I'm unable to use the method Element.GetRectangle() — it produces similar errors.

Is it possible I have something wrong in my FF settings?

All the best,
Yaroslav
