[Vishwanath Chitnis]

hi,

i need to parse the content on a page (which are basically headers ) and
verify certain content is returned or not by my server . i am using IE
automation i tried using
Content();
VerifyText($string, [iflags])..but getting "Undefined subroutine
&main::Content called at main.pl line 35." this error..any ideas how this
can be done..?
is there any other way other than above mentioned to do this?

thanks in advance

Show more code. Something we can run that will illustrate
your problem.

Wow. Usually the problem is on line 42 (42 is, of course, The Answer to
the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything, according
to Deep Thought). I have no idea how you could possibly have a problem
on line 35. Maybe you accidentally deleted seven lines.

ok, here is the code:

$webserver=apache1;
$platform=solaris;
$uname=abc123;
$password=abc123;

my $ie = Win32::IEAutomation->new(visible=>1,maximized=>1);

if ($webserver == apache1 && $platform == solaris){

$ie->gotoURL('http://xyz.test.com:8900/_cqr/test.cgi');

}

$ie->getTextBox("name:", "loginId")->SetValue($uname);# am passing username

$ie->getTextBox("name:", "password")->SetValue($password); # to pass the
password

$ie->getButton("caption:", "Submit")->Click; #this is to submit the
details...

$ie->getLink("linktext:", "xyz")->Click;# after i login i need to click on
particular link on the page
Content();# after i am navigated, i am trying to get contents from my
page...not sure if this is correct..
VerifyText($nick="google.com") ;# this is to verify whether google.com is
present in the contents returned...



now i am able to login successfully, and able to navigate to that particular
link as well...but after navigating i have to verify wehther certain
parameters are present or not...this is where i am struck.. any ideas how do
i verify..this
thnx

Provide a segment of code which can be run and produces
the error you are getting. These three lines of code will
not run. We don't know how you defined the $ie object, for
example. We should be able to copy and paste your supplied
code and run it locally.
Please send your code to the list, not to me personally.
Allow everyone to help you.
