[Wtr-general] PopUp window problem

[Duke]

If we're not dealing with a modal dialog, but an actual new window, often Watir doesn't wait correctly since it's only worrying about whether the current window is done loading, not what the pop-up is doing.  Here's my fix:


  def get_popup(how, what)
    tries = 100
    popup = nil
    until popup do
      begin
        sleep(0.1)
        popup = IE.attach(how, what)
      rescue => e
        raise e if (tries -= 1) <= 0
      end
    end
    popup
  end

  @ie_popup_window = get_popup(:title, /Drive Admin/)
