How to handle a new window

[johnNewbie]

Hello,

I am new to selenium so this is probably easy to do. Is there a way to
use a regexp on a selectWindow name?

I am trying to run a report and verify the text on the report.

selenium.click("//input[@value='Run Report']"); // opens a new window
with the report info. The window name is dynamically generated and
the title of the original window and report window have the same
title.

selenium.selectWindow("name=reportPage7949362521241992");

is there a way to do something such as
selenium.selectWindow("name=reportPage*")?

I have tried using
stringArray = selenium.getAllWindowNames();; // it returns only the
first window name and not the report window

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
John

Hi John,

try with the below command.

selenium.selectWindow(selenium.getAllWindowNames()[1]);

But are you sure, it's a new window? if it's popup window the above command will not work.

HI,

I am trying to automate a functionality where we have to select a
person.we need to search the person is a pop up and then add.THe pop
up opens after the clicking on "add" link.
The proble is that Selenium opens, puts the desired test for
searching, but fails when the operation requires it to click "search"
button.

What could be the reason?

Hi Sasi,

Thank you for the reply.

I am sorry I thought it was a new window but it is a popup.
