Fail to close Mozilla Dialog when use title

[ne1l]

Hi

I have been experimenting using autoit to close browser dialog's; I have been able to close the dialog using the CLASS attribute but not the Title. Does anyone know how to close the dialog using the Title of the window?

ie.

1. Use firefox to open http://babelfish.yahoo.com/

2. Click translate button without entering any text and mozilla dialog is displayed

3. If I execute the following using the CLASS attribute the dialog closes

$i=0

Do

WinWaitActive("[CLASS:MozillaDialogClass]")

WinClose("[CLASS:MozillaDialogClass]","");

Until $i = 100

4. but if I try to use the Title the dialog does not close

$title = "The page at http://babelfish.yahoo.com says:"

; set the select mode to select using substring

AutoItSetOption("WinTitleMatchMode","2")

$i=0

Do

WinWaitActive("$title")

WinClose("$title")

Until $i = 100

Any ideas why AutoIt can identify the dialog using the CLASS attribute and not the Title?

Thanks in advance for any help given

Are you sure that's the window's title and not just the document's? What does the Window tab of AU3Info.exe look like when pointed to that?

This works fine for me:

#include <GuiConstantsEx.au3>

Opt("GUIOnEventMode", 1)

Global $hParent = GUICreate("The page at http://babelfish.yahoo.com says:", 300, 300)
GUISetOnEvent($GUI_EVENT_CLOSE, "_Quit", $hParent)
GUICtrlCreateButton("Test", 100, 100, 100, 30)
GUICtrlSetOnEvent(-1, "_Buttonclick")
GUISetState()

While 1
    Sleep(10)
WEnd

Func _Buttonclick()
        Local $hWin = WinGetHandle("The page at http://babelfish.yahoo.com says:", "")
        $sTitle = WinGetTitle($hWin)
        MsgBox(64, "Result", "HWND = " & $hWin & @CRLF & "Title = " & $sTitle)
        Sleep(1000)
        WinClose($hWin)
EndFunc   ;==>Button3Click

Func _Quit()
    Exit
EndFunc   ;==>_Quit

Try the same method on your window.

Hi

Thanks for your time .. I can see how autoit interacts well in your script with the title of a CLASS 'AutoIt v 3 GUI'.. but the problem I am having seems to be specifically with the title of browser dialog's.

Have you got a working example of an autoit script identifying a browser dialog i.e Class: MozillaDialogClass by it's title?

It's the WinWaitActive($title) which is screwing it up. If you remove that it works as expected. Not sure how to solve this, but probably the WinTitleMatchMode doesn't work with WinWaitActive (just guessing)

I just ran this and then created the popup in Firefox:

WinWaitActive("The page at http://babelfish.yahoo.com says:", "")
Local $hWin = WinGetHandle("The page at http://babelfish.yahoo.com says:", "")
$sTitle = WinGetTitle($hWin)
MsgBox(64, "Result", "HWND = " & $hWin & @CRLF & "Title = " & $sTitle)
Sleep(1000)
WinClose($hWin)

It worked just fine. Adding Opt("WinTitleMatchMode","2") to the top of the script didn't change anything either; still works. I can't make it fail.

Looks like you have issues with your environment.

thanks very much for your help .. it was the the "Local $hWin = WinGetHandle($title, "")" step that I was missing .. once I get the handle of the dialog I can now close dialogs using both firefox & IE

all the best
