How does that post talk about handling modal pop-up ?? which if I understand correctly is basically a popup which would need to be processed before moving further. I was under the impression that Selenium/WebDriver doesnt work very well with modal dialog boxes no ?

Thanks & Regards

Hi Krishnan Mahadevan,

Your are right. Till now i couldn't find the easy way to handle modal's like it is for normal alert's. Currently i am handling it by taking element locators of "OK" or "Cancel" buttons in modal and performing click operations.

I've found 2 ways (no perfect solution):

* Robot class to just press Enter key

//switch to the alert or modal popup
Alert alert = driver.switchTo().alert();
//accept the alert
alert.accept();

Dinesh,

For handling model popups/windows  in selenium you need to take three command help 

driver.getWindowHandel() ; This is return patent window property
driver.getwindowHandels(); this will return overall open window properties. Save all the properties then use the below command

driver.switchto.window(supply window property).

Robot class for handle window based controls on the web app

Thanks.
