Maybe take a look at wd_demo.au3

[caramen]

I got this return, but It does not rly help me : 

_WD_ExecuteScript: {"value":4}...
Frames=4
_WD_ExecuteScript: {"value":true}...
TopWindow=True

 

[Danp2]

@caramen Perhaps this revised example will help you --

Func DemoFrames()
    Local $sElement

    _WD_Navigate($sSession, "https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml_iframe")
    ConsoleWrite("Frames=" & _WD_GetFrameCount($sSession) & @CRLF)
    ConsoleWrite("TopWindow=" & _WD_IsWindowTop($sSession) & @CRLF)
    $sElement = _WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, "//iframe[@id='iframeResult']")
    _WD_FrameEnter($sSession, $sElement)
    ConsoleWrite("TopWindow=" & _WD_IsWindowTop($sSession) & @CRLF)
    $sElement = _WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, "//iframe")
    _WD_FrameEnter($sSession, $sElement)
    $sButton = _WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, "//button[@id='w3loginbtn']")
    _WD_ElementAction($sSession, $sButton, 'click')
    _WD_LoadWait($sSession, 2000)
    _WD_FrameLeave($sSession)
    ConsoleWrite("TopWindow=" & _WD_IsWindowTop($sSession) & @CRLF)
    _WD_FrameLeave($sSession)
    ConsoleWrite("TopWindow=" & _WD_IsWindowTop($sSession) & @CRLF)
EndFunc

I see nothing happen on the website... bro It's me that is retarded again lol 😛 ?

Okok. So If I don't understand the way it works, how, and where to start ?

What do I have to understand ? 

What is a Frame concretely ? 

 

From now, I understand that the syntax is correct.

But I cannot find the element because he is hidden by the frame or something like that ?

So I understand I have to touch the frame before touching the element ?

@caramen You can't interact with an element until you switch to the correct browsing context. You can switch browsing contexts using _WD_Window. You can also use the helper functions _WD_FrameEnter & _WD_FrameLeave, which call _WD_Window behind the scenes.

Please remember that this is the Webdriver UDF support thread. Since your question is of a general nature and not Webdriver specific, you may want to start a separate thread dealing with website frames.

Now I got it. These functions are like lever/

Sorry about the out of context question I thought that was in your scope.

Lesson learned ! 😛 thanks guys. 

 

Func EnvoyerInfoMasque ()
            Local $sFrame = _WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, "//frame[@id='main']")
            ConsoleWrite("Frames=" & _WD_GetFrameCount($sSession) & @CRLF)
            ConsoleWrite("TopWindow=" & _WD_IsWindowTop($sSession) & @CRLF)
            _WD_FrameEnter($sSession, $sFrame)
            ConsoleWrite("TopWindow=" & _WD_IsWindowTop($sSession) & @CRLF)
            $sElement = _WD_FindElement($sSession, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, "//textarea[contains(@id,'icmtDE_SYMPAPPEL')]")

            _WD_ElementAction($sSession, $sElement, 'text', 'Caraxxx@hotmail.com1' )
            _WD_ElementAction($sSession, $sElement, 'value', 'Caraxxx@hotmail.com1' )

            _WD_LoadWait($sSession, 2000)
            _WD_FrameLeave($sSession)
EndFunc

_WD_ElementAction($sSession, $sElement, 'text', 'Caraxxx@hotmail.com1' )

The 'text' option only retrieves the element text, not set it. Therefore, this line isn't doing anything and can be eliminated.

_WD_LoadWait($sSession, 2000)

Don't see why this would be needed here.

You did that in the example, I just did same.

That true. However, in my example I performed a click action on a button before calling _WD_LoadWait. There is no such action being taken in the script you posted, so I stand by my original assessment.

[Cyphon68]

 If i have the array of handles, is there a way of getting the HTML titles or URLs from those handles without switching to them?

I know i can _WD_Window switch, then _WD_Action($sSession,"title") to get the titles once i switch...but I was hoping i might be able to pass a handle to _WD_Action to get the title without switching the visual pane.

[Danp2]

@Cyphon68 Not that I am aware of. You may be able to do it with _WD_Execute and some Javascript.

Can you provide further details on your goals / why you need this information? That may lead us in a different direction.

[Cyphon68]

There's a webpage that i'm trying to automate, and when a certain step is taken, it launches an unecessary pop up. I don't want to disable all pop ups for the browser, I just want to locate this pop up, get a handle to it, and close it.

[Danp2]

I would do it like this --

• Save the current tab's handle
• Use _WD_Attach to temporarily switch to the popup window
• Use _WD_Window to close the popup
• Switch back to the original tab using the saved handle

Another option would be something like this --

• Save the current tab's handle
• Gather the list of current handles
• Perform the action that produces the popup
• Gather the list of current handles (2nd time)
• Compare the two sets of handles and close any that don't exist in the initial set
• Switch back to the original tab using the saved handle

[Cyphon68]

ok, one major thing i just figured out, haha. 

_WD_Window($sSession, 'handles') returns the raw handle, not the string for the handle that you'd need for doing things like switching and closing.
