popup window exist or not

dk

Hi
Is there an api to check if popup window Exist or not?
Popup opens by _click(_link($name)); So I wont get a handle as I am not using javascript to open poup.

Thanks

Hi dk,

_popup can use either the window name or the window title. If you hover over the element, the controller should populate the "Prefix:" field with the correct "_popup" identifier.

Btw, if the link has a 'target="someName"' attribute, someName would be the name of the window.

the problem I face with this...
window name is dynamically generated
i.e. in some cases I get:
Sahi Prefix: _popup("TableClass_49").
Sahi Prefix: _popup("TableClass_66").
Sahi Prefix: _popup("TableClass_3").
etc...

and if I use the Window Title instead,
Sahi Prefix: _popup("Table Class Title Page").
The above is not unique, I can have multiple page with the same title...

1 - would be nice to see Sahi to also implement the alternatives pulldown for Prefix/Window
2 - is there a way to have a Sahi API that will kill all browser window/tab as a starting point? This way test is not confused as to which window must be run against.

Hi rj412,

I think your problem occurs when playing back via controller. Older windows may be left open which can cause confusion in playback. (Could you please confirm this?)

You could add

_popup("/TableClass_/")._closeWindow();

towards the end of your script to automatically close the opened window. You can use _popup("/TableClass_/") to identify the windows with changing suffixes.
