How to simulate a click on div class element ?

Sahi 3.5 OpenSource
Version : V3.5
Build : 2011-07-19

Browser : Firefox (IE 8 and 9, Chrome)


In a web page, I have a rectangular clickable area. A click on this zone opens a new window for selecting other user's options.

Here is the HTML code thar corresponds to this zone, in front of which is displayed "Compétences :".
<tr>
<td class="name align-top">Compétences :</td>
<td id="SkillId" class="value">
<div class="inputLook" onclick="EditZoneEx('SkillId', '2', 'pages/services/')"> </div>
</td>
</tr>

With the Sahi controller to simulate a click on this area, the recorded line is :
_click(_div("inputLook[6]"));

The trouble is that, the index '6' will probably change in the future as the development team will add some other elements in this web page.

I have tried to use : _click(_div("SkillId")); but it doesn't work...

How to simulate a click action using the DOM or positional relations functions (_near, ...) bypassing the use of static numerical identifier ('6') ?

Thanks for your help.

Hello,

It uses regular expressions to identify the object.

For example:

_click(_div("/inputLook.*/"));

Other examples:

_link(12) Using index in a page; assuming this is the 13th link on the page
_link("sahi_link") Using id as a string
_link(/.*_link/) Using id as a regular expression
_link("Link to Sahi website") Using visible text as a string
_link(/Link to .* website/) Using visible text as a regular expression
_link("/Link to .* website/") Using visible text as a regular expression
_link({id:"sahi_link"}) Using an associative array with id
_link({sahiText:" /Link to .*/"}) Using an associative array with visible text as regular expression
