_prompt and _confirm not working

Pachat

_prompt(message) and _confirm(message) described http://sahi.co.in/w/browser-action-apis
are not event parsed.

So we get a --FAILURE--

So I tried to add them to scheduler_functions.txt.
But then, it was impossible to navigateTo.

Is there a patch to get _prompt(message) and _confirm(message) working properly ?

Hi Pachat,

You are right, _prompt and _confirm are not exposed as APIs by Sahi right now.

Please have a look at this http://sahi.co.in/forums/viewtopic.php?id=2038 to see how _prompt can be used.

_confirm is similar.

narayan,

It works !

I gave a little enhancement, allowing to custumize the message

<browser>
function promptForUserInput(message){
    _sahi_temp_promptValue = _sahi._prompt(message);
}
</browser>

function getUserInput($message){
    var $value = null;
    _call(promptForUserInput($message));
    _set($value, _sahi_temp_promptValue);
    return $value;
}


// Get the user input in your script
var $userInput = getUserInput('Enter a name');
_alert($userInput);

Thank you for your support

In fact, for some reasons, it looks like not to be quite similar.
The following code does not work

<browser>
function confirmForUserInput(message){
    _sahi_temp_confirmValue = _sahi._confirm(message);
}
</browser>

function confirm($message){
    var $value = null;
    _call(confirmForUserInput($message));
   //Firebug says :  _sahi_temp_confirmValue is not defined
    _set($value, _sahi_temp_confirmValue);

    return $value;
}


// Get the user input in your script
var $userInput = confirm('Are you sure ?');
_alert($userInput);

What am I doing wrong ?

Hi Pachat,

_confirm function was not defined on Sahi. Use the code below:

<browser>
function confirmForUserInput(message){
    _sahi_temp_confirmValue = _sahi._confirm(message);
}
Sahi.prototype._confirm = function (s) {
    return this.callFunction(this.real_confirm, window, s);
};
</browser>

function getConfirmResult($message){
    var $value = null;
    _call(confirmForUserInput($message));
   //Firebug says :  _sahi_temp_confirmValue is not defined
    _set($value, _sahi_temp_confirmValue);

    return $value;
}


// Get the user input in your script
var $userInput = getConfirmResult('Are you sure ?');
_alert($userInput);

Note that I am using getConfirmResult instead of confirm. If not, any javascript code calling confirm() will invoke this function, instead of Sahi's mock confirm function.

Great! It works fine.
