am looking to evaluate the contents of a javascript popup using watir, i have googled around heavily and found some code that people suggest would work but nothing i have tried so far works, the only thing i have found myself capable of doing is clicking the buttons. i dont want to click the buttons i wish to read the contents to evalutate its contents before closing it can anyone suggest a good method for reading the contents or alerts or popups im sure there has to be methods of doing this, if not through watir maybe another ruby module that interfaces IE through com in the same way, since evaluation could be done anyway suggested and then i can close the popup using watir so i can continue onwards -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
