Handling multi selects

pbpb Members
edited November -1 in Sahi - Open Source
Is it possible in sahi to record multi selects, i.e. selecting from a list, then holding ctrl, selecting another, etc.
Only we are currently getting a _click on each select, so only the last entry is selected.

Thanks.

    Hi pb,

    Go through the description of the sahi API _setSelected(). That should sort out the things if I correctly understood your problem.
    I am reproduccing the description given there:


    _setSelected ( element, value, isMultiple)

    The parameters are:
    element:
    value: Option

    Thanks, thats sorted our select boxes!!

    Is it possible to use this same method when selecting on a multi select table?

    Cheers.

    Having difficulty trying to select multi entries on a multi select table.
    Have tried the setSelected, but cant seem to figure how, or if this way can be used.

    Has anyone any suggestions on how i may implement his?

    Thanks

    Should just note we are using dojo, the dojo filtering table, which is problably why we're having difficulty!!
  • pankaj.nithpankaj.nith Members
    Hi Pb,

    I don't have much idea about dojo. All I could understand from net is that it is a widget, a collection of jscripts. All I can suggest is that it must be using some functions/APIs defined in those jscripts. Try calling those functions through your sahi script. It may help.

    pb,
    Can you post an example somewhere so we can have a better understanding of your problem?

    Hi all,
    firstable, thank you to the Sahi Team to provide such a good tool.

    I'm replying to this old topic as I'm having the same issue. It happens with a dojo component, but could be with any other Js component.
    Here is an example: http: // archive.dojotoolkit.org/nightly/dojotoolkit/dojox/grid/tests/test_data_grid.html
    I'd like my Sahi scripts to be able to multislect rows, that means CTRL+click on those rows.

    Do you have any idea how to do that?
    I'm using "Sahi (Build: 2010-08-20)".

    Thanks in advance for your answer.

    PS: please remove space in the url, i added them because of the "New Members can not post links" restriction

    Hi Benjamin,

    CTRL-Click was not supported so far. We have added support for it (and other keys) now. I will send you the link to a build which has the fix.

    You will use it like this in your example page: 
    _click(_cell("Africa"));
_click(_cell("Kenya"), "SHIFT"); // shift click
_click(_cell("Nairobi"), "CTRL"); // ctrl click

    Regards,

    Hi Narayan,

    I also have the Sahi 2010-08-20 build and need to automate SHIFT+Click. May I have the link to the build with the fix too please?

    Thanks, Romi.
