File upload with _setFile is not happening in Firefox

Bhavitha

Hi,

I have to do File upload in my application and used _set File function. It worked while i test the application in IE, but the same script i am not able to playback in FireFox.

This particular function works in IE:-

function upload()
{
_click(_link("Application Form"));
_popup("Document Upload")._setSelected(_select("plDocumentTypeId"), "Bvf Document");

_popup("Document Upload")._setFile(_file("theFile"), "C:\\Documents and Settings\\bsundharesan\\Desktop\\test.pdf");

if(_isIE())

{

_popup("Document Upload")._call(_file("theFile").outerHTML=_file("theFile").outerHTML.replace(/type=file/,"type=text"));

}
else
{
_popup("Document Upload")._call(_file("theFile").type="text");

}
_setValue(_textbox("theFile"),"C:\\Documents and Settings\\bsundharesan\\Desktop\\test.pdf");

_popup("Document Upload")._click(_submit("Upload"));
_popup("Document Upload")._click(_button("Close"));



The same script does not works in FF, and i get an error near the if(_isIE()) condition:-

_sahi.setServerVar('___lastValue___1290166543411', _isIE());
Window/Domain not found: popupNameFromStep=; derivedName=File Upload; windowName=; windowTitle=File Upload; wasOpened=1; domain= at Nov 19, 2010 5:06:37 PM

i tried with if(_isFF()) also if(_isFF3()), but it did not work, but if i remove the if and else loop and place the code of line :- _popup("Document Upload")._call(_file("theFile").type="text");
. it works....

Can someone help me as to what is the problem in playing back the same script in Firefox.
I need to give a demonstration of it.

Looks like there is no base window available to do the upload (I am not sure why).

You could store the variable for isIE() much before in your script and then use it.

function upload()
{
    var $isIE = _isIE();
    _click(_link("Application Form"));
    _popup("Document Upload")._setSelected(_select("plDocumentTypeId"), "Bvf Document");
    _popup("Document Upload")._setFile(_file("theFile"), "C:\\Documents and Settings\\bsundharesan\\Desktop\\test.pdf");
    if($isIE)
    {
          _popup("Document Upload")._call(_file("theFile").outerHTML=_file("theFile").outerHTML.replace(/type=file/,"type=text"));
    }
    else
    {
        _popup("Document Upload")._call(_file("theFile").type="text");
    }
    _setValue(_textbox("theFile"),"C:\\Documents and Settings\\bsundharesan\\Desktop\\test.pdf");
    _popup("Document Upload")._click(_submit("Upload"));
    _popup("Document Upload")._click(_button("Close"));
}
