Subject: [SafariWatir-general] Selecting from popup menus doesn't trigger
	Javascript
Message-ID: <F4938A72D7B81B4FAFC4D2C478D31A241CDDEC@postmaster.catalystsecure.com>

Hi Dave,

Not sure if you can help me out here or if you are even taking any more emails from frustrated watir scripters. I am fairly new to  programming so forgive my ignorance in this. I found a possible solution on http://www.hanselman.com/blog/ClickingAJavaScriptDialogUsingWatir.aspx but it does not work. I get a window that seems to be searching for the popup window name but it apparently does not like what it sees and goes away and the popup is still there.

The popup occurs when I click on a "Copy" button that will copy selected documents to a specified folder.  I thought that the popup window name should be identified somehow but in this solution it is not.  

Attempted solution 1:  

	def startClicker(button , waitTime = 3)
		w = WinClicker.new
		longName = $ie.dir.gsub("/" , "\\" )
		shortName = w.getShortFileName(longName)
		c = "start ruby #{shortName}\\watir\\clickJSDialog.rb #{button} #{waitTime} "
		puts "Starting #{c}"
		w.winsystem(c)
		w=nil	
	end
	
	$ie.link(:text,"Copy to Folder").click
	$ie=Watir::IE.attach(:title,/Copy Page/)
	$ie.span(:index,12).click
	startClicker("OK" , 3)
	$ie.button(:value,"Copy").click

Attempted solution 2:

	require 'JavascriptHelper.rb'
	include JavaScriptDialog

	$ie.link(:text,"Copy to Folder").click
	$ie.span(:index,12).click
	$ie=Watir::IE.attach(:title,/Copy Page/)
	JavascriptHelper.check_dialog(OK){ $ie.button(:value,"Copy").click }

Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated.
