    var page = "https://www.mailinator.com/inbox2.jsp*";
    page.FindChild("contentText", "Important Information from THC", 20).Click();

    I am using TestComplete 12, IE11 and JScript. It is worth mentioning that I have checked that all my Web extensions are enabled (I had a situation here few of them were unchecked!).

     

    P.S.: Just noticed that, while typing "page.FindChild("contentText", "Important Information from THC", 20).Cli ...", autocomplete is not popping up!


    Hi Dave,

     

    The problem is that page is a string, it should be a Page object:

    var url = "https://www.mailinator.com/inbox2.jsp*";
    var page = Sys.Browser().Page(url);
    page.FindChild("contentText", "Important Information from THC", 20).Click();

    or if using Name Mapping/Aliases:

    Aliases.browser.pageMailinator.FindChild("contentText", "Important Information from THC", 20).Click();
