[Wtr-general] Javascript Alert windows

[Adam Reed]

David,
 
    I remember this being in the FAQ and forum posts, but I haven't been
in a while -- maybe it was removed (I can't check at the moment).  First
you define your script that closes the window (I called it jsAlert).
 
def jsAlert(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
 
Then, before the button you want to click that generates the popup, add
in:
jsAlert("OK", 3)
ie.button(:name, "woohoo").click    # This is the button you want to
click that generates the popup
 
Thanks,
 
Adam Reed

Does Watir have a way of processing Javascript Alert windows, by
clicking the OK button to dismiss the window? The code that invokes the
window issues an alert call with no window handle. I did not find
anything on this in the online docs or in the email dist.
