HTML input element names - flexdev - 05-12-2012
Hi -
I'm getting this new error on my HTML page I'm testing:
The object was found, but Smart Identification was necessary to identify it.
Object
Page Page
Step:
Code:
Browser("Browser".Page("Page").WebEdit("meetingId")The HTML page I'm testing consists of several forms; one on top of the other. Each form has its own submit button.
The part I'm thinking may be the problem is that several <input> elements have name="meetingId" or "meetingid" (across forms). Is this bad form? Could this be the root of the problem I'm seeing?
Thanks for any helpful tips.

you should try and explore some properties using Object Spy, that are unique to this webedit, and when you add the object in Object repository, there is a green '+' sign, through there, you can add those unique properties to this object's identification. e.g. abs_x, abs_y, html id, or any other property, if there are multiple elements with same properties, then use the index identifier..
