click_by_value

click_by_value($value,$exactly=true,$frame=-1,$wait_browser=true); - this function is used to emulate a mouse click on a page element, finding it by the specified value or part of it.

the input Function accepts parameters:

$value – the value that we use to find the element we need on the page (string). To find out the value of an element, you can use either the element inspector or the context menu, or view it in the list of elements.

$exactly – exact match value when searching for an element (boolean), by default 1 - the value of the element must completely match the passed parameter ($value). if this parameter is set as 0, the first element whose value contains the specified string will be found ($value). Starting from version 7.0.25, you can fart the value 2, then value will be interpreted as a regular expression for the Java Script String.search function.

$wait_browser – check and wait for the end of navigation (available from version 7.0.21)

$frame – the number of the frame in which we are looking for the element (string). Frame numbers start from zero. By default, -1 - the element is not in the frame. You can find out the number of the frame that contains the item you need from the task inspector, the context menu, and the item list panel.
With version 4.6.41 of postpone: you can pass nested frames, the principle is the same, a string is numbered frames separated by : for example, if you transfer "1:0:5" - will the selected frame number 1 in it under the frame with the number 0 and the subframe number 5
Since version 7.0.38, you can pass "url=>XXX", then search for the frame that contains the specified src, or pass "name=>XXX" - then the frame will be searched by the specified part of the name.

After the function returns the result of their work in the script (the return value type is boolean):

true – executed successfully

false to find this element failed (e.g. no items that meet the specified criteria or not this frame)

PHP example:

<?php $xhe_host = "127.0.0.1:7013";
 
//connect the object to control the emulator, if not already connected
if(!isset($path))
  $path = "../../../Templates/xweb_human_emulator.php";
require($path);
 
//Start
echo "<hr> <font color = blue> checkbox->".basename(__FILE__)."</font> <hr>";
 
//1
echo "1.Let's go to the polygon:";
echo $browser->navigate("http://humanemulator.net/poligon/checkbox.html")."<br>";
 
//2
echo "2.Click on the element with value equal to Linux:";
echo $checkbox->click_by_value("Linux", true)."<br>";
 
//3
echo "3.Click on the element with value containing X3:";
echo $checkbox->click_by_value("X3", false)."<br>";
 
//4
echo "4.Click on the nonexistent page element:";
if(!$checkbox->click_by_value("ptych", true))
   echo "no such element <br>";
 
//five
echo "5.Click on the element with value containing System X in frame zero:";
echo $checkbox->click_by_value("System X", false, 0)."<br>";
 
//6
echo "6.Click on the nonexistent element in the zero frame:";
if(!$checkbox->click_by_value("ptyc", true, 0))
echo "no such element <br>";
 
//7
echo "7.Click on an element in a non-existent frame:";
if(!$checkbox->click_by_value("System X", false, 4))
echo "no such frame";
 
//end
echo "<hr> <br>";
 
//Quit
$app->quit();
