Webaii help need with ddl

[Andrew]

I am trying to write a script for this page using straight webaii (not using recording feature in vs) for this page

http://www.letthememoriesbegintour.com/index.php?view=form

I want to select a value from the county ddl "Canada" (and I can) but it will not cause the update of the state ddl to occure so it gets filled with proviences.

any idea?

Hi Andrew,

You must add code to manually fire the jQuery event so subsequent dependent drop-downs are properly populated. Here is sample code that works against that site:

Manager.LaunchNewBrowser();
ActiveBrowser.NavigateTo("http://www.letthememoriesbegintour.com/index.php?view=form");

HtmlSelect country = Find.ByExpression<HtmlSelect>("id=country");
//Scroll the browser so we can visually confirm the drop-down selections
country.ScrollToVisible();
country.SelectByValue("CA");

//Manually invoke the jQuery event. You can reuse this line and change the ID to match the applicable control.
Actions.InvokeScript("$('#country').change()");

HtmlSelect state = Find.ByExpression<HtmlSelect>("id=state");
state.SelectByValue("Yukon");

//Short pause to visually confirm the drop-down selections were correctly made
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(2000);

For more information, please read this article.
