Watir-Classic does not close Javascript Dialog when button onclick event fired

[enroxorz]

When I do the following, the Javascript Dialog does not close (in fact, the button click is stuck and does not go any further). Is there a work around?

irb(main):001:0> require 'watir-classic'

irb(main):002:0> b = Watir::Browser.new

irb(main):003:0> b.goto 'file:///c:/test.html'

irb(main):004:0> b.button(:value => "Press").click

Watir 3.2.0

Ruby 1.9.3

Yes, you should use #click_no_wait together with Watir Alert API (http://watirwebdriver.com/javascript-dialogs/)

In your case:

require 'watir-classic'

b = Watir::Browser.new

b.goto 'file:///c:/test.html'

b.button(:value => "Press").click_no_wait

b.alert.ok
