Subject: Re: Modal dialog is not geting closed second time in RUBY:WATIR

Pretty watir specific, so maybe repost to the watir mailing list.
The long&short of it is though, modal dialogs are a pain in waitr ;)
I've always had to use winclicker for them.

If you have a link that brings up the dialog, and the link is stored
in the variable @link, something like this should work.

  def startClicker( button , waitTime = 3)
    #(copied & edited from various sources), I'd cite but I forget all
of them :)
    w = WinClicker.new
    longName = @ie.dir.gsub("/" , "\\" )
    shortName = w.getShortFileName(longName)
    c = "start ruby #{shortName}\\watir\\clickJSDialog.rb #{button}
#{waitTime} "
    puts "Starting #{c}"
    w.winsystem(c)
    w=nil
  end

  startClicker("OK")
  @link.click
