Clicking Javascript link in a web application


Recommended Posts

In the app is a table (see attachment).  In the first column there is an edit link for each row.  I need to write a script that clicks the edit link, performs a task, and then moves onto the next row where it repeats.

The problem is that I can't figure out how to click the edit link.  I don't want to use mouse coordinates because they change depending on the data (column widths and row heights and such).

It's in IE but the edit link itself is a javascript link.  When I right click the edit links and select properties, I see something like javascript:openOrderForm('6484166', '219021');

Use the _ie functions.

Grab the table object

Grab the tr elements in the table

loop through the tr elements, and focus on the td (cell) which contains the link

click on the child object of the cell...use an html spy to get the details of the link, and post them back
