Hi,
i´m having a problem with a link inside a DIV.
It´s a menu built inside a DIV, and his attrbute onclick returns null.
The action is in attribute 'mmaction', but watir doesn´t understand
this 'mmaction' attribute.
when I use:
ie.div(:id, "menuItem1").flash
the link flashes.
When I use this:
ie.div(:id, "menuItem1").fire_event("onclick")
nothing happens, because "onclick returns null
This is the element in the source
... onclick="onMenuItemAction(null,this);" saveColor="#F1F1F1"
menuHiliteBgColor="#CCCCCC"
mmaction="location='javascript:openWin(2);'" zIndex="1">
The action is in 'mmaction' attribute.
Tks

I think you'd better provide your code here.

Ok, think I follow. So fire_event won't work for you here as you have
non-standard javascript events defined.
I've cleaned up and provided a simplified version of the html here:
http://justaddwatir.com/watir/test_html/tc_0001_0100/test_0020.html
Then, using the .goto method, I am simply calling the javascript
function direct (that mmaction would normally call) as follows:
@b.div(:id, "menuItem1").flash # pass
#@b.div(:id, "menuItem1").fire_event("mmaction") # fail
#Previous action will cause WIN32OLERuntimeError: fireEvent Invalid
argument.
@b.goto("javascript:openWin(2)") # pass
So let me know if that last call is suitable. You may want to enum the
function call into a variable using regex (if it is dynamic/changing)

Tim,
thanks
it´s works
I will implement a way to get the value in the 'mmaction' and then the
goto wil call it.
thanks again...

Tim,
Sorry to answer with another question.
I was implementing the solution you pass to me, but i found something I cant resolve.
When I pass the browser.goto("javascript:openWin(i)") command, the script will not "close" until the browser is closed.
It´s get stucked in the line of the command. So, if I pass some button.click command, it will not work.
What i´m doing wrong?

for example, execute it in some separate thread then like this:
Thread.start {browser.goto("javascript:openWin(i)") }
and have some wait_until after that line to check if you can do
anything yet...
Thread.start {browser.goto("javascript:openWin(i)") }
and have some wait_until after that line to check if you can do
anything yet...
