Unable to record on child window

Hello,

I am newbie to Sahi. I am facing one problem while recording. My web page contains a link when clicked, opens a new window (which contains content from different domain say my parent content comes from xyz.com, the new window contains content from abc.com).

I am unable to record anything in the new window using Sahi controller.

I also read the limitation of Sahi. So my question is, the scenario I mentioned above is a limitation or I am missing something?

Thanks,
Sumeet

    Hi Sumeet,

    Sahi should be able to record that website. You have not hit a limitation in this case. Could you try recording on abc.com directly rather than after opening it via xyz.com? It may be something in abc.com itself.

    Also clear your browser cache and check if it works.

    Could you also specify your browser, browser version and operating system?

  • Hey Narayan,

    Thanks for your prompt reply. I am yet to try the suggestions you mentioned (clearing cache of browser).

    The browser that I am using is IE8 and I am using Windows7 Enterprise edition operating system.

    Will also let you know the result after clearing cache of browser, till then Sahi rocks!!!

  • Hello Narayan,

    I did clear the cache of my browser(IE8) and performed similar steps, but no success. Then I individually recorded on the child window(containing content from abc.com directly) and I was able to successfuly record it, it means that there is no problem with abc.com but when abc.com is launched from xyz.com the recording fails.

    Thanks,
    Sumeet
