Unable to capture my actions on Rich Text Editor in PHP page

[satish tulasi]

Hi All,

 

I am new to Selenium and was assigned the task to automate a scenario to upload set of data (types of questions) to the website.The question should be typed in RichTextEditor and then it should be saved. I have to automation this process as there are lot of questions and manually its time taking.

 

Problem:

 During recording Selenium is capturing all the events but except one event when I type some text in RichTextEditor it does not record or capture that event. Please help me understand how to resolve this issue.

 

Thanks,

Satish

I remember a similar case using a RichTextEditor, and the problem was the frame, to type something in the RTE I had to access the frame, looks the this line vSelenium.Type("//body", "Selenium Question!");

I did the following in C#

                // Add the Question in the RTE
                vSelenium.Click("//div[@id='math_help_problem_question_tab_header']/span[2]");
                Thread.Sleep(2000);
                vSelenium.SelectFrame("question_rte");
                vSelenium.Type("//body", "Selenium Question!");
                vSelenium.KeyDown("//body", "!");
                vSelenium.KeyUp("//body", "!");
                Thread.Sleep(5000);
                vSelenium.SelectWindow("null");
                vSelenium.Click("//img[@onclick='javascript:submitQuestion();']");
                Thread.Sleep(5000);
                Assert.IsTrue(vSelenium.IsElementPresent("//a[contains(text(),'Selenium Question!')]"));
                Assert.AreEqual("Selenium Question!", vSelenium.GetText("//a[contains(text(),'Selenium Question!')]"));

maybe that helps...
Thanks

You must select frame which contains RichTextEditor

Hi Satish,
You can create one function and use it

public void SetText(String iframeDescription){
         String str= "{"+
          " var doc=selenium.browserbot.getCurrentWindow().document;" +
          "doc.getElementById('rte').contentWindow.document.body.innerHTML='"+iframeDescription+"';"+ "}" ;
           selenium.getEval(str);
        }

In the above function pass your text editor id on the place of 'rte'
like doc.getElementById("your text editor id").contentWin............

For using above function just use as method

SetText("This is the text");
