Key board Inputs.

Hi Udhay,



a) I would recommend to record the actions (select script recording but not keyword test recording (http://smartbear.com/support/viewarticle/11287/)) and look at the result;



b) Do you really need to use the Ctrl-F functionality? Are you testing the Find dialog? If not, then why not to get the contents of the target page as a text (use the Object Browser to find the property that contains the contents of the tested page as a text) and then use the string functions like StrContains() to check if the page contains the text you are looking for.

Hai Alexei,



Thank You for your suggestion. The link was helpful. But I have also found the way for getting the keyboard inputs in VB Script using the Windows Scripting send key methods which is explained in the blog http://mercuryquicktestprofessional.blogspot.com/2007/11/ways-to-send-keyboard-input-to.html and  the input characters for keyboard inputs like SHIFT, CTRL, ALT can be done with the help of the msdn library http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/8c6yea83.aspx.

Hello Udhay,



Here is the code that demonstrates a possible approach:

Call Sys.Process("iexplore").ToUrl("http://smartbear.com/")
 

Set Page = Sys.Process("iexplore").Page("http://smartbear.com/")


Call Page.Keys("^f")

 

Hi Allen,



Thanks for reply. This is exactly what I was looking for.



Regards,

Udhay.
