show_links

Does anyone know of a way to store the output of show_links as an
array? I've tried setting the array equal to something like
ie.frame("mainFrame").show_links but the array always comes back as
nil.

I basically need this so I can loop through all the links on a page and
do various automated tests.

show_links grabs the links and sends them to stdout

it uses doc.links, so that may be what you need

If it uses the stdout, what about writing that part as a separate script
and using IO.popen, like:

links=[]
IO.popen("ie.rb") {|f| links.push f.gets}

you need to do this:

ie.frame("mainFrame").links.each do |this_link|
# do something with this_link,
# eg puts this_link.to_s
# this_link.click
# etc
end

This is how I was able to fill an array with just the actual hyperlinks
of all the links on a page:

linkcount = Array.new
length = ie.document.frames.length

for i in 1..length
linkcount[i] = ie.frame(:index, i).links.length
for y in 1..linkcount[i]
ar[y] = ie.frame(:index, i).links[y].href
end
i = i + 1
end
