Frame, nested frame

[rr]

Hi all,
I want to know how to write script for nested frame. I want to click
on object which is a link and it is in nested frame (means frame
inside frame) but there are 4 items in those frames. This situation
arises when I open my mailbox. Those 4 items are "Compose", "inbox",
"Folder", "Search". Only thing which differ all 4 items is 'href'. I
am not getting how to write script for particular item. I have used
ie.frame(:name, "name").frame(:name, "name") but it was not usefull as
number of items are there inside those frame. Please provide solution.

Please ignore 'iframe' element in your script code, you can try it again and can you post your html source code.

Index can also be used to differentiate b/w the similar objects/
components.

Hello,

You might want to try the Webmetrics watir recorder. Very useful for
creating scripts.
http://www.webmetrics.com/products/script_recorder.html

I'm working on projects that have objects nested inside of frames
that are 3 levels deep.
The downside is that it can't do anything with pop ups - but hey there
are several
methods already available.

I find SpySmith useful for this sort of thing

e.g. a link in my application is shown as:

Active Element: [A], Frame: [mainFrame/centralFrame], Index: [71]
<A href="releaseNotes.jsp">Release Notes</A>
