RC: change focus to new tab

[BillR]

When I click in a login page, a new tab is opened in FF. I don't know
how to get to it with selenium.

...
selenium_.click("//input[@value='Login']");
Thread.sleep(5000);
String[] wins = selenium_.getAllWindowNames();
for (String s : wins)
System.out.println("win: " + s);

Output: just the one window:

win: selenium_main_app_window

I notice that target=_blank:

<form name='loginform' target='_blank' action='xxx.php'
method=POST>

Not sure if that's a factor. Here's the server log:

11:58:58.513 INFO - Command request: click[//input[@value='Login'], ]

Can you post a public link which behave like this?
So that i can try on that...

[santhosh soma]

Hi All,

As Per my knowledge,we cant focus to new tab in firefox through selenium because selenium commands will execute only with in the tab where selenium base url opened.

Thanks
Santhosh.

The website is functioning on single page

 

should we use selenium rc,how we can solve this problem?

[Brian Kitchener]

What I do is create a separate firefox profile that always launches a
new window instead of a new tab.

You can find instructions here:

Thanks for the profile suggestion. I followed it, starting like this:

$ java -jar selenium-server.jar -firefoxProfileTemplate selenium_ff

also

$ java -jar selenium-server.jar -firefoxProfileTemplate C:/dev/java/
api_client/lib/selenium_ff

but still there is just the one window.

win: selenium_main_app_window

The log still doesn't say anything about starting a new window:

12:31:17.556 INFO - Command request: click[//input[@value='Login'], ]
on session b18b040392934c74a5df889180b41046
12:31:17.744 INFO - Got result: OK on session
b18b040392934c74a5df889180b41046
12:31:22.744 INFO - Command request: getAllWindowNames[, ] on session
b18b040392934c74a5df889180b41046

In the debug log, as before, there is an odd msg:

12:34:11.269 DEBUG [13] org.openqa.jetty.http.handler.ResourceHandler

- PATH=/driver/ RESOURCE=file:/C:/adbrite-dev/java/api_client/lib/
MISSING%20RESOURCE

This is with the new profile set as the default, e.g. when I start FF
manually from Start/Run, I see the profile selected and under Tools/
Options/Tabs that 'open new windows in a new tab instead' is
unchecked.

Does it matter if the new window is opened on a different url than the
login window (different host)?

Here's the log for launching - should it mention it's using a custom

Also verified that a manually-launched browser starts a new browser on
login.

I'm able to see both windows with Selenium 2:

WebDriver driver = new FirefoxDriver();
selenium_ = new WebDriverBackedSelenium(driver, site);
...login...
for (String handle : driver.getWindowHandles())
System.out.println("win " + handle);

win {662ad6bf-c0e5-4f58-89fa-2d37ebc4898c}
win {6f3751a8-10b4-4847-ad55-eae959f65280}
