Sahi Controller via browser add-on instead of doubleclick?

Hi,

I've been playing around with sahi for two days now and this question appears to me as very urgent. I have tried it on two machines, a windows xp PC and a G4 Powerbook running MacOSX 10.4. On the PC it works sometimes to raise the sahi controller, but not relyable, and I didn't get it working on the mac at all. So is there a possibility to have some mozilla/ie addon installable to the browser's bottom area that one has just to click to run the controller? I have never written browser add-ons myself, so I have no idea how much work it is.

Best regards,

    Hi halluecehn,

    The Controller does not work if the page has not gone through the proxy, which can happen if the page is being picked from cache. Could you try again after clearing your browser cache? It may work just with a forced refresh too.

  • Hi narayan,

    Thank you for your response! I found out: first set the proxy to localhost, then open a tab with the page to test, then CTRL+doublecklick opens the sahi controller relyably. After sahi crashes, which it does ocasionally, close the tab with the page to test and reopen it again after sahi has been restarted.

    I have tested this only on the PC, no idea about the Powerbook.

    Hi halluecehn,

    Sahi should definitely not be crashing, especially on an XP since that XP and Win 7 are our development environment.

    Could you send across screenshots of the problem next time it happens? Please send it to support@sahi.co.in.

    Thanks,

  • Hi narayan,

    Well, it stopped crashing after I wrote the last post in this thread, so I can't report much on that matter, but I'll monitor it and copy and paste error messages and email them when they occur.

    Thats good to hear :) Though, if it repeats, please do send details.

    Thanks,
