Selenium's open command implicitly waits for the whole page to load, including images, etc.
How do I just wait for the DOM to load, like jQuery's .ready() method?
Currently, I'm using waitForElementPresent, but is there a better alternative?
I think you may try to do the following
Tweak the selenium source code to stop it raising page reloaded flag.
Use custom command or getEval to check if the dom is loaded and proceed.

I want to call Prism.highlightElement or Prism.highlightAll after doing some other javascript processing on my code blocks. I can somewhat control the moment that Prism processes by where I place the <script src="prism.js"></script> but I don't see a way to disable automated processing.
Super kludgy answer:
Even though I asked for the development, not minified, version of prism.js when I download, what I got is kind of minified. Anyway, I found this bit of code:
var a=document.getElementsByTagName("script")
and changed it to this:
var a=document.getElementsByTagName("scriptxx")
So, nothing gets highlighted now, until I explicitly call Prism.highlightAll().
I just started playing with google chrome apps. I've searched the internet and haven't found the way to print the content of the windows. Tried using windows.print(), but nothing happened.
As far as I have read, the print() wont work since it is called in the background.html that does not have any content. How can I make the call at the correct place and send the content of the app to the printer?
Thank you in advance!
You're right that this can't be done through the Background page, since it is not rendered. What you'll need to do is inject a "content script" into the page you would like to print. The content script would contain the print command, and probably whatever would trigger the print command.
In a nutshell, "content scripts" are scripts that are injected into the pages a user browses. You can inject pretty much any JavaScript you like, and even inject entire JavaScript libraries like JQuery. More details can be found here:
https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/content_scripts.html
If you decide to use a popup window to trigger the print you can pass a message to the window you would like to print. Message passing is how the different components of an extension (background page, content script, popup) communicate. More info can be found here:
http://developer.chrome.com/extensions/messaging.html
Printing in apps is not yet supported, I believe. See
Issue 131279: async version of window.print()
I want a solution for the following scenario:
In a page I am uploading an xml and while clicking on the upload button I am going to recieve an pop up for confirmation (I am able to detect this), after this again I am recieving an pop up which I am not able to detect (The page is still getting loaded in the browser ). Kindly help me to sort this out .
I have tried with many solutions for this like: get window ids,titles .
Thanks
You can you use -
$sel->get_confirmation()
This retrieves the message of a JavaScript confirmation dialog generated duringthe previous action. By default, the confirm function will return true, having the same effectas manually clicking OK. This can be changed by prior execution of thechooseCancelOnNextConfirmation command. If an confirmation is generatedbut you do not get/verify it, the next Selenium action will fail.
NOTE: under Selenium, JavaScript confirmations will NOT pop up a visibledialog.
NOTE: Selenium does NOT support JavaScript confirmations that aregenerated in a page's onload() event handler. In this case a visibledialog WILL be generated and Selenium will hang until you manually clickOK.
Returns the message of the most recent JavaScript confirmation dialog.
You should always refer to WWW::Selenium - Perl Client while working with perl and RC.
I have found what is the problem #amey ...I am tring to upload an file which is not actually not permitted due to some security issues with firefox... There was actually an work around for this
http://cakebaker.42dh.com/2006/03/29/file-upload-with-selenium/
.....Which will not work with latest Selenium RC with Firefox since firefox have removed the support for enablePrivilege

So it is a mandate to shift to WEBDRIVER it seems.............

Thanks for your support....
my solution was using the function:
$driver->execute_script("Events.invokeEvent('UserDetailPage:UserDetailScreen:UserDetailToolbarButtonSet:UserDetailToolbarButtons_DeleteUserButton_act', true);");
analyzing what the javascript code does when the Accept button was pressed. and executing that code in the function.
According to this FAQ, when GWT bootstraps, onModuleLoad is supossed to run before HTML body's onload event. The process detailed within that FAQ works like this:
1. The HTML document is fetched and parsing begins.
...
9. externalScriptOne.js completes. The document is ready, so onModuleLoad() fires.
...
12. body.onload() fires, in this case showing an alert() box.
But in my tests, i have checked that it doesnt work this way. Or at least not in every browser (oddly, Google Chrome in particular doesn't stick to this kind of behaviour). For example, I have this little test involving onModuleLoad and body.onLoad:
public void onModuleLoad() {
runTestFunction();
}
private native void runTestFunction() /*-{
console.log("GWT's onModuleLoad");
$wnd.loaded=true;
}-*/;
And:
<body onload="console.log('body.onLoad');if(loaded!=null) console.log('loaded var is set');">
If i launch firefox, and run this example, the console will show this:
GWT's onModuleLoad
body.onLoad
loaded var is set
But in Chrome:
body.onLoad
Uncaught ReferenceError: loaded is not defined
GWT's onModuleLoad
In the latter, onModuleLoad runs the last, thus "loaded" var is not yet available and body.onLoad code cant use it.
And what Im trying to achieve? I want some handwritten Javascript that runs within body.onload to interact with my GWT code. In this example i use this dummy "loaded" var, but in the future it should be able to call GWT functions written in Java. The problem is that i need to make sure that onModuleLoad runs first so it can export the variables and methods for javascript to access them.
So, what am i missing? Is this behaviour as unreliable as it looks like, or am i doing something wrong?
PS: i have a plan B to achieve this which is proved to work, but first i want to make sure that it isnt possible to do it this way since this should be the preferred method.
First, the latest version of the doc is at http://code.google.com/webtoolkit/doc/latest/DevGuideOrganizingProjects.html#DevGuideBootstrap
And it says (even the GWT 1.5 version you were looking at) that "onModuleLoad() can be called at any point after the outer document has been parsed", which includes before and after window.onload.
As the doc says, GWT loads your code in an iframe (used here as a sandbox), which is asynchronous; so your code loads when both the iframe and the "body" are loaded. Depending on the time needed to load the iframe, that can be before or after window.onload (in the example, they assume it loads right away, which could be the case when the *.cache.* file is effectively in the browser's cache).
But the rule of thumb is that GWT tries hard (at least the built-in linkers) to make things start asynchronously so that it doesn't break loading of other external resources (stylesheets and images, for instance). That implies that it cannot be guaranteed to run before the window.onload (they could have guaranteed to run after window.onload, but why wait?)
If anyone knows TinyMCE well, do you know if it has built-in support for periodically calling its triggerSave function?
(This function copies it's content to its "parent" textarea. I want to observe said textarea for changes so I can implement autosave.)
Thanks
Don't try autosave, trust me on this one. triggerSave is buggy and when it fails it fails silently so you think that your content got posted, but in reality it didn't. After it fails once it will no longer work for the rest of the session, as in until the page is manually reloaded and tinymce does another full init().
Just got bit by this one badly, again. Never again trust triggerSave.
You could easily do this yourself by using JavaScript's setTimeout() function.
