    In JScript, you need to convert arrays returned by EvaluateXPath/QuerySelectorAll/FindAllChildren/etc methods to the JScript array format:

     

    arr = section.EvaluateXPath("//div[@class='dxbButtonSys']", true);
if (arr != null) {
  arr = (new VBArray(arr)).toArray();
  Log.Message(arr.length);
}
    else {
      Log.Message("Not found");
    }

Although all the elements of 'arr' are 'undefined' this works for my purposes of determining if any div exists with class 'dxbButtonSys'.

 

Anyone see a problem with this?

 

 

    section = Sys.Browser().Page("*").Panel("primaryWrapper").Section("primaryContent").Nav("contentNav").Panel("mainNav").Panel("cplMainMenu").Panel("pcNavigation").Panel("pcNavigation_CC").Panel("pcNavigation_C3").Panel(0).Article(0);
    arr = section.EvaluateXPath("//div[contains(@class, 'dxbButtonSys')]");
    if(arr != null)
      return false;

    I recently had to find labels on a page that is visible only and made the following function.

     

    Example usage:  VerifyVisibleLabel("Surname")

     

     

    function VerifyVisibleLabel(labelName) {
	try {
		var page = Sys.Browser("*").Page("*");
		page.Wait();

		var labels = page.FindAllChildren("nodeName", "LABEL", 50);
		var labelFound = false;

		labels = (new VBArray(labels)).toArray();

		if (labels.length > 0) {
			for (i = 0; i < labels.length; i++) {
				if (labels[i].contentText == labelName && labels[i].Visible == true) {
					Log.Message("Label found - FullName: " + labels[i].contentText);
					labelFound = true;
				}
			}
		}
		if (labelFound == false) {
			GenError("Label not found: " + labelName)
		}
	} catch (exception) {
		GenError("custom error message here...")
		return false
	}
}
