Select new open window
Pooja
i am facing a very common problem. but unfortunatly no solution worked
for me.
i am using selenium server 1.0.3.
in my application, i click a button and it opens a new window with
results.
new window doesnot contain window id or window name but only title.
and i am not able to focus this window as selenium does not recognise
it. and gives exceptions while trying to find out new window's
elements.
selenium.Open("http://www.abc.com/"); //main
window
selenium.Click("//div[@id='mainImage']/a/img"); //click on image on
main window
// new window opens
up
selenium.SelectWindow("title=New
Window"); //select newly opened window.
selenium.Click("//img[@alt='Get Flash
Plugin']"); //click image on newly opened
window.
nw selenium gives exception while searching for img to click bcoz it
does not find .
thanks in advance.

Add selenium.windowFocus(); after selenium.selectWindow command.
Thanks

new window to load. Have a look at
http://i-am-geek.blogspot.com/2010/02/how-to-handling-timing-in-selenium.html.
Specifically, selenium.waitForPopUp().
Second, are you sure that the title, as Selenium sees it, is "New
Window"? There is a selenium.getAllWindowTitles() method. Once you
have the waitForPopUp in place, call the getAllWindowTitles method and
see what titles Selenium can see. You might also want to call the
getAllWindowNames and getAllWindowIds methods as well, just to confirm
there is no id or name for the new window.

i tried using
selenium.WaitForPageToLoad("60000"); it gives exception after time
out.
and i tried to find out title, id and name of new window using
selenium.GetAllWindowTitles(); selenium.GetAllWindowIds();
selenium.GetAllWindowNames();
but all three only recognise the main window opened by selenium.
this is my code
try
{
selenium.SelectWindow("null");
selenium.Type("NAME", "davis");
selenium.Click("NAME_SRCH_BTN"); //button to
click ... it opens new window with title "Fund List".
//Thread.Sleep(50000);
selenium.WaitForPageToLoad("60000");
//selenium.WaitForPopUp("","10000"); // i have no
window id to supply here
string[] titles = selenium.GetAllWindowTitles(); //show
only main window title "Fund Search"
string[] ids = selenium.GetAllWindowIds(); // show
only main window id as "undefined"
string[] names = selenium.GetAllWindowNames(); // show only main
window as "selenium_main_app_window"
selenium.SelectWindow("title=Fund List"); // gives
exception that could not find window with title Fund List.. although
the window exists there.
selenium.WindowFocus();
selenium.Click("//img[@alt='Download']");
}
catch(Exception e)
{
Log_info("Error:" + e );
}
i m using c# and selenium-dotnet-client-driver-1.0.1.

try {
selenium.SelectWindow("null");
selenium.Type("NAME", davis");
selenium.Click("NAME_SRCH_BTN");
// give it 20 seconds to open the new window
// this is important to this exploration
Thread.Sleep(20000);
string[] titles = selenium.GetAllWindowTitles();
string[] names = selenium.GetAllWindowNames();
string[] Ids = selenium.GetAllWindowIds();
// print the contents of the arrays here
} catch(Exception e) {
Log_info("Error: " + e);
}
You don't want to wait for the page/popup/frame/condition then get the
titles, names and ids. You want to sleep long enough you are positive
the new window is present then get all the titles, names and ids. If
you find there is a name, title or id to look for you can change the
code to:
try {
selenium.SelectWindow("null");
selenium.Type("NAME", davis");
selenium.Click("NAME_SRCH_BTN");
string locator = "????";
selenium.WaitForPopUp(locator);
} catch(Exception e) {
Log_info("Error: " + e);
}
where ???? is the name=, title= or id= locator. If this does not work
you'll either have to ask the developers to put a title, id or name to
the window or get creative. I had one instance where I just knew the
new open window was the window I wanted. So I just switched to the
first child of the current window. I believe using
selenium.SelectPopUp(null); did the trick.

i assume when u click on Click("//div[@id='mainImage']/a/img");link is it opening a new window with different domain(other than abc.com) or new window with same domain.
As of my knowledge, solutions assisted by darrell should work for pop-up window/window/frames
Thanks

in my application (which is converted from java to c#.Net)
In HTML code on submit button click , form action is
"FundSearch.do" (which as i knw is a java servlet)
and open results in a new window.
now i need to perform operations on the new window.
but i am not able to select/focus that window using selenium or any
other means.
Thanks,
