IE DOM explorer not showing the detail it used to


Recommended Posts

I am pretty sure the site that I am using was updated and now I am not seeing the same tags/elements that I used to. I tried using a UIAspy to see if I could grab them that way with no luck. 

What do I need to do to be able to automate this again. Are the elements hidden somewhere?

Instead of highlighting established account is highlights all of the web page almost. How can I get to the detail again? 

I used to grab establish account by the name. Now I have nothing to even try to grab. 

There are not elements in the event viewer either.

This is what happens when I try to inspect the element and click established account. 

I get the same type of results in chrome

It does not get rid of anything thing visual until I delete

 

<canvas width="1479" height="901" style="width: 1479px; height: 901px;"></canvas>

 

this is what is looks like when I delete the above line.

If I delete any of these nothing changes that I can see.

<div class="overlayEle" style="width: 1479px; height: 901px; position: absolute; top: 0px; left: 0px;"></div>

 

<div class="scrollerInnerEle" style="height: 336px; width: 632px;"></div>
<div class="scrollerOuterEle" style="width: 1479px; height: 901px; position: absolute; top: 0px; left: 0px; overflow: auto;"></div>

 

Not sure how much help this is going to be, but this is how I used to grab it.

Any chance you can tell us the website or (better yet) upload the html source? I realize you're at work though :)

Have you tried expanding more items below the expected area? Sometimes stuff is hidden for me. If the URL changes after you click on those options, you could always navigate there instead. If it's JavaScript, you could execute the JavaScript on the page instead.

If I could I defiantly would. It is behind a login in anyway.  I have a feeling I am just SOL.  

I am not sure if it is a JavaScript or not. I will look into this. Is there any easy way to tell?

Hover over the link radio button(?) or try to copy it... you should see a URL or something like like "javascript:submitAction_win0(document.win0,'#ICRow0');"  (That's a PeopleSoft example).

Also, can you right click on it and see what you get when you select Inspect/Inspect Element... I assume the canvas, but who knows :)
