I want to automate this application using Windows Application Driver for that I have to click on the open button inside the open file dialog box. but the windows application driver is not able to find this open button.
I tried using automation id Class name run time id x path but it is not working

Use apple automator to open a pdf in acrobat and enter keystroke on the dialog that pops up when I run acrobat

I'm trying to use Automator on my mac to get around a system dialog. When I open a pdf I get this dialog from acrobat for which I always want to select deny:
I made an automator app that works to select deny, but when I change the application that opens pdf's to this automator.app it doesn't actually open the document, it just launches acrobat and selects deny on the dialog then just sits there.
The way I'd like it to work is that I want to double click any pdf on my computer and always select deny on this dialog which always pops up whenever acrobat opens up.
I'm not married to accomplishing this the way I'm doing it now, I just don't know how else to do it.
The current automator steps/flow is this:
Ok I found how to do this in a slightly different way for anyone interested. Just using the Watch Me Do function instead since it always pops up the same way. Then I just saved it as an app and I right clicked a pdf file and selected this custom app as the one to always use when opening pdf files.

How to determine title and additional infos from an open window for use with Autohotkey?

To access and control a window, dialog or popup with Autohotkey the title of that specific window is needed. For some windows the title can be read directly if its visible, but some windows hide it. The window class and the exe (ahk_class and ahk_exe) aren't visible at all. How to gather this information reliable?
Use the Window Spy tool, which is installed together with AHK, it can be started various ways:
Right click the tray icon of a running AHK script and select Window Spy
Start the AU3_Spy.exe in the AHK installation folder
Use the Windows search to search for Window Spy
You will get a window called Active Window Info with various infos about your current active (topmost) window. The first box is the one you need.
Example
The box gives title, class and .exe to detect the target window of which every line can be used to identify the window. Now you should activate the window you want to address and copy the information.
Hint: You can (un-)freeze the display with Win + A

New Browser window in Windows Phone with Phonegap/Jquery Mobile

How to open new Browser window in Windows Phone with Phonegap and Jquery Mobile?
I tried everything i could think of:
link name
With javscript window.open
etc
I can't get it to open in a new window. The problem is when it opens now it its inside the "webview" and when pressing the back button the application closes, it should go back to the prev page. Or it should open in a new window/outside the app (aka internet explorer).
There 2 possible solutions:
A way to open it outside the application
Open it inside but should be able to get back to the prev bage with the back button
