Instance Method Details

#execute_script(javascript, other_variables = {}) ⇒ Object

evaluates a given javascript string in the context of the browser’s content window. anything that is a top-level variable on the window will be seen as a top-level variable in the evaluated script.

returns the last evaluated expression.

raises an error if the given javascript errors.

you may specify a hash of other variables that will be available in your script. for example:

>> browser.execute_script("element.tagName + ' ' + foo", :element => browser.buttons.first.element_object, :foo => "baz")
=> "BUTTON baz"

note, however, that if the name of the variable that you use is the same as a variable on the window, the window’s variable is what will be in scope. for example:

>> browser.execute_script("typeof document", :document => "a string")
=> "object"

the type is ‘object’ (not ‘string’) because window.document is what is seen in the scope.

this function is most useful if you need to execute javascript that is only allowed to run in the context of the content window. one example of this is Flash objects - if you try to access their methods from the top-level context, you get an exception:

>> browser.element(:tag_name => 'embed').element_object.PercentLoaded()
JsshError::Error: NPMethod called on non-NPObject wrapped JSObject!

but, this method executes script in the context of the content window, so the following works:

>> browser.execute_script('element.PercentLoaded()', :element => browser.element(:tag_name => 'embed').element_object)
=> 100
