wait_element_exist_by_attribute

wait_element_exist_by_attribute($attr_name,$attr_value,$exactly=true,$frame=-1); - this function is used to wait for a page element to appear, checking it by the specified attribute value or part of it.

Available from version 7.0.45

the input Function accepts parameters:

  • $attr_name – name of the attribute whose value we will search for the element on the page (string). To find out the attribute names of an element, you can use either the element inspector, the context menu, or view it in the list of elements.
  • $attr_value – the value of the attribute that we will use to search for the element on the page (string). To find out the value of a given attribute for an element, you can use either the element inspector, the context menu, or view it in the list of elements.
  • $exactly - exact match of the value of the specified attribute when searching for an element (boolean), by default 1 - the value of the specified element attribute must completely match the passed parameter ($attr_value). if this parameter is set as 0, the first element is found where the specified attribute value contains the specified string ($attr_value).Starting from version 7.0.25, you can fart the value 2, then attr_value will be interpreted as a regular expression for the Java Script function String.search.
  • $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 list of items 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.

    The element timeout is set using the variable $iSecondsWaitElementExistBeforeAction=15; //how many seconds to wait for the element to appear defined in the template file xweb_human_emulator for each language.
