Hi seniors:
I have had a reference on this web-site http://sahi.co.in/w/_lastAlert,
E.g.
<input type="button" onclick="alert('abc')" value="Click Me">

I through this web page as my example to start capture text by command _lastAlert().
Step 1, I called Sahi controller,
Step2, To write those to Evaluate-expression field as below:
_click(_button("Click Me"));
_lastAlert();
Step3, opened web(http://sahi.co.in/w/_lastAlert), then to Press button {Test -->} on sahi controller,
Step4, I saw the first syntax is working that its really to click button(poped-up a alert),
and I expected it will as well as responding of alert text {abc}, unfortunately, it returned null value as showing at sahi controller.

please, could anyone ever experienced this to help me?
Really thanks in advance!!!

1. host PC: win XP - sp3
2. IE 8
3. Open source Sahi build 2013-02-06

Hi Wei,
_lastAlert() will work correctly when played back from a script. So please just use it from a script.

When played back from a script, the correct behavior should be:
- Click of the alert will be suppressed. The alert should not appear.
- _lastAlert() will return the correct value and not null.
