Using _popup(identifier) with popup title blank in the webpage I mean <tittle></title>

I'm using the _popup(identifier) instruction in sahi. When the web page in it's html code has the tag <tittle>Window Name</title>, sahi works OK. All the instructions related with popups works ok.

_popup("/.*/").
_popup("Window Name).

But when the popup WebPage doesn't have title(<tittle></title>) those instructions don't work.

Sahi doesn't recognize the popup window because It doesn't has title.

I've searched at forum but I haven't found answer yet

I just need, when the popup page has title in blank; How Sahi identified the popup WebPage ?


In Javascript you can change the title of the any WebPage with "document.title='New Title'" but in sahi this doesn't work.

When the popup WebPage doesn't have title in its place it puts the URL of the page.
The title is for instance "http://localhost:8081/FormularioPHP/consultardirecto.php";
I've tried too calling the popup with the URL :

"_popup("http\:\/\/localhost\:8081\/FormularioPHP\/consultardirecto\.php")._setValue(_textbox("nick"), "john");" but this doesn't work
I've tried too, for this case:

_popup("/.*/")._setValue(_textbox("nick"), "john");
_popup("") ._setValue(_textbox("nick"), "john");
_popup()._setValue(_textbox("nick"), "john");
document.title="Windows Name"



Thanks for your time :-)

    Hi,
    Try using _selectWindow("your_url");

    _selectWindow("your_url");
    _setValue(_textbox("nick"), "john");
    ..
    ...
    ....
    _selectWindow();

    Please let me know if it works for you.

    Regards.

    Anyone else?

    Hi estebann,
    By "your_url", i mean the url of your popup window. You will have to replace the "your_url" in the piece of code i mentioned above with the actual URL of the popup window.

    Regards.

    Hi estebann,
    When you hover over the elements on your popup window, do you see any value inside <Prefix> in the recorder tab of your controller?

    Regards.
  • estebannestebann Members
    No, I don't see the prefix because the html code doesn't have the tag <titl></title> then sahi doesn't recognize de WindowsName

    I've got the same behavior with a Sahi Pro v5.1.2
    Clicking on a button on the main page pops up a window without title.
    Sahi controller shows the prefix popup_xxxxxxx but this is dynamically generated.
    It's then not possible to script this through a regexp with _popup function.
    Anyone succeeded in get the current popup id?
