[Htmlunit-user] HtmlCheckBoxInput click() issue

[Kevin M. <km...@se...>]

Hey all,

I'm fairly new to HtmlUnit, so apologies if this has been covered  
before (the only related message I could find in the archives was  
over a year old).  Basically, I have a form with a check box and when  
the box is clicked it fires off a JavaScript event that submits the  
form.  The click() method, however, is not returning the new page  
after the form submission but rather the page that the check box was  
contained in.  Is this not the correct approach to capturing that new  
page instance?

Thanks,
Kevin

That was fixed in 1.3 and there is a unit test for it.

Okay, well I'm using 1.6.  So any thoughts as to what may be going  
wrong?

Just to give a snippet of what I'm doing:

         final HtmlPage nextPage = (HtmlPage) getForm().getInputByName 
("sameShippingInfo").click();
         final HtmlForm form = nextPage.getFormByName("add");

where getForm() is a method I have that returns the only form for the  
current page.

nextPage gets set to the current page and form gets set to the same  
form that getForm() returns.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Kevin

Which version do you use? May your form be submitted in an other window / frame?

Marc.

I'm using HtmlUnit 1.6 and this is all in a single frame.  What I  
have is a Tapestry webapp with a form.  The check box's onclick event  
has some Javascript that submits the form.  Tapestry's listener gets  
called in response and redirects to a new page.  This behavior has  
been verified in every major web browser, so it's not that the form  
is not causing the redirect.

Quite strange. Can you log the currently opened windows using WebClient.getWebWindows()? Can you check if the page is 
really the one that is currently loaded in the window: nextPage == nextPage.getEnclosingWindow().getEnclosedPage()

I'll give this a shot, but in the meanwhile, I noticed something  
odd.  If I set a breakpoint in the webapp to handle the form submit,  
it turns out it never gets hit.  So, I think HtmlUnit is just not  
executing the onclick handler correctly.  The rendered HTML for this  
checkbox is the following:

<input type="checkbox" name="sameShippingInfo" id="sameShippingInfo"  
onchange="javascript:this.form.submit();"/>

I've worked around this in the interim by simply calling form.submit 
() and setting a couple of others things up to simulate the clicking  
of the checkbox.  Calling form.submit() will submit the form and  
redirect to the correct page.

Any further thoughts on this?

Thanks,
Kevin

have you tried
onchange="this.form.submit();"

That had no effect.  The click() method is still returning the  
current page instance.

I'll try your previous suggestions.

Thanks again for your help,
Kevin

I finally attached the source to the debugger and stepped through the  
code.  Turns out the issue is that HtmlUnit only handles onclick  
events.  Changing my event from onchange to onclick made everything  
work.
