_popup and while loop

rj412

Need syntax help for while loop with _popup:
I tried the following but none works.
Please help.
Env: Windows, IE 6 ; Sahi_20101103

while(_popup($popupWindow)._assertNotExists(_cell("/Results are:/"))) {
_wait(1000);
doSomethingElse ();
}
while(_condition(_popup($popupWindow)._assertNotExists(_cell("/Results are:/")))) {
_wait(1000);
doSomethingElse ();
}
while(!_popup($popupWindow)._assertExists(_cell("/Results are:/"))) {
_wait(1000);
doSomethingElse ();
}
while(!_exists(_popup($popupWindow)._cell("/Results are:/"))) {
_wait(1000);
doSomethingElse ();
}

Use like this:

while(true) {
      var $condn = false;
      _popup($popupWindow)._set($condn, _exists(_cell("/Results are:/")));
      if ($condn) break;
       _wait(1000);
       doSomethingElse ();
}

I think both of my issue with _getText and _exists are related and both times failed when used with _popup
Let me explain why:
With hard-coded popup Window Title is used- both of these operation work.
But once popup window is reference with /.* -xxxxx- .*/ - the same operations no longer work: getting [Exception][object Object]


//when _exists works with _popup
_popup("Test Page - This is only a Test - user1 (Sample/User/Text)")._exists(_div("This user has already been taken"));
//when it does not work with a reference popup
var $popupWindow = "/.*This is only a Test.*/" ;
_popup($popupWindow)._exists(_div("This user has already been taken"));
//when it does not work with a reference popup
var $popupWindow = "/.*This is only a Test.*/" ;
var $condn = false;
_popup($popupWindow)._set($condn, _exists(_div("This user has already been taken")));
_debug($condn) ;

//when _getText works with _popup
_popup("Test Page - This is only a Test - user1 (Sample/User/Text)")._getText(_div("This user has already been taken"));
//when it does not work with a reference popup
_popup($popupWindow)._getText(_div("This user has already been taken"));
//when it does not work with a reference popup
var $popupWindow = "/.*This is only a Test.*/" ;
var $ReadText ;
_popup($popupWindow)._set($ReadText, _getText(_div("This user has already been taken")));
_debug($ReadText) ;
