How to handle close button click in edge browser while using WebDriver

[RohanM]

Hi All,

how to handle close button click event in edge browser while using webdriver, I want to detect from the script if user click Close "X" from the Edge Browser before its get close.

Are you wanting to intercept / prevent the browser from being closed by the user? If so, I'm not sure that's possible. You may want to look at using _WD_CheckContext to validate the current context.

No, What I am trying  to archive here is, I will open website till the login page and user has to enter credentials, for this script will wait till user successfully enter their credentials, once user got authenticated it will go to home page and then it will exit the loop, but if user closed the browser form "X" my script is still running but browser will close, so I want to access the users click activity before its close then I can stope the script. 

While 1
        If $login = False Then
            $oInputBox = _WD_FindElement($Session, $_WD_LOCATOR_ByXPath, "//input[(@name='searchvaluerow1') and (@class='qstext searchVal')]")
                If $oInputBox <> '' Then
                    $login = True
                    ExitLoop
                EndIf
        EndIf

if user pressed Close "X" I want to stop my loop

    WEnd

_WD_CheckContext should give you what you need to detect the tab being closed. You may also want to look at using _WD_WaitElement along with it's $_WD_OPTION_NoMatch option.

Hi @Danp2

thank you so much for you reply as always.

I am sorry I bit confused with your reply since I am new to autoit and this function (_WD_CheckContext) is not in even https://www.autoitscript.com/wiki/WebDriver, can you kindly provide me a sample code?

Did you try looking it up in the help file that comes with the UDF?

[RohanM]

Yes, I checked in wd_demo.au3 file but couldn't find is there is any other help files?

check in:

https://github.com/Danp2/au3WebDriver/archive/refs/tags/0.12.0.zip

 

you will find: Webdriver.chm

wd_demo.au3 is a script to demonstrate many of the UDF functions, but it isn't the help file. You should have a file name Webdriver.chm, which you can double click on to launch.

thank you @mLipok and @Danp2 found help files.
