HtmlUnit Get Title of HtmlAnchor - htmlunit

I don't see this method in the documentation, http://htmlunit.sourceforge.net/apidocs/com/gargoylesoftware/htmlunit/html/HtmlAnchor.html
Is there a way to get the Title attribute from an HtmlAnchor?

I found what I wanted shortly after posting this question (through trial and error):
anchor.getAttribute("title")

Capybara - Click element by class name

For what seems to be a simple question I've been on this for a stupidly long time and can't seem to find anything on Google. I have this button I need to click which has no id but a class is included
<button class="filter-case-studies" onclick="initBootpag(filterForContentType('CASE STUDIES', searchHits))" type="button">
<b>CASE STUDIES</b>
(2)
</button>
I've tried using click_on which I now know is only for links and buttons so of course won't work. This is what I have so far:
When(/^I filter the results to only see case studies$/) do
click_on('filter-case-studies')
end
I've also tried page.find('filter-case-studies').click, this too doesn't work.
page.find(:class, 'filter-case-studies').click defualts to :css so this also failed for me.
Is there no way to click an element by the class name in Capybara?
Thanks in advance for the help.
The standard way of doing this in Capybara is
find('button.filter-case-studies').click
In relatively recent versions of Capybara you should also be able to do
click_on(class: 'filter-case-studies')
find('.filter-case-studies').click as recommended here https://robots.thoughtbot.com/write-reliable-asynchronous-integration-tests-with-capybara#find-the-first-matching-element
I had a button that could not be found (Unable to find visible link or button nil with classes [close-modal]) using the methods above.
This worked for me: page.execute_script('$.find(".close-modal")[0].click()')
click_on('.filter-case-studies')
You need the . selector for classes, and # for ids.
Thanks to Mr Schutte for the idea to use . selectors.
I had to use page.find(:class, '.filter-case-studies').click in the end. The absolute navbar got in the way of the button so I then had to include page.execute_script "window.scrollBy(0,500)" to complete the test.

Vote for comments in posts function with Codeigniter and routing

I am trying to create posts with comments with CodeIgniter and I am trying to add voting for the comments with + and -.
But my problem is not actually this functionallity but more exactly creating the link and the method in controller/model for this.
I understand that there is some kind of link to methods.
If I have something like this:
public function like() {
echo 'Test Function';
}
and when I create link like this one sitename.com/posts/first-post/like theoritecally I will see blank page with "Test Function" text (and of course if I write proper routing rule but I cannor for now).
I can see a blank page with this working echo 'Test Function', but does this mean I have to load every methods and views for the entire page if I want to display the entire webpage with all the elements? I think that I mistake something very serious here but I don't know what.
The example with the "Create news" tutorial in ellislab.com didnt help me. They show something similar I think with /create/ section in the URL and create() methods.
If I have many links with functionallities do I have to add new routing rules for all of them? I really tried to search in Google and everywhere but I didnt find anything related.
Sorry for this lame question.
You need to use Ajax call and on callback you have to increase or decrease the count. For creating a link , once page is loading render the data and provided the default link like
for + http://<site.com>/<controller>/like?totalLike=<36>
for - http://<site.com>/<controller>/unlike?totalunLike=<3>
Once user will click + link then by using Ajax, call the controller method link/unlike and increase or decrease the count and repopulate the link again with fresh counter.
Hope it will resolve your problem.

Wicket replacing panel with ajax fails with MarkupNotFoundException

the page markup has
<div wicket:id="stepPanel" />
tag in it and when the page is first loaded it works great that is
add(new MyFirstPanel("stepPanel"));
works fine. But then when I trigger an Ajax event and request redrawing
addOrReplace(new MySecondPanel("stepPanel"));
target.add(MyPage.this);
i get the following error
Last cause: Failed to find markup file associated. MyFirstPanel: [MyFirstPanel [Component id = stepPanel]]
please note that it tries to find the wrong markup (should look for markup for MySecondPanel) and it fails regardless it succedded to do so before!
I instantiate panels using reflection, but could it be a problem here? No exceptions thrown.
Anwser:
Actually it was something else - I have noticed that one of my AjaxSubmitLinks had reference to a form that was no longer placed in a markup... so whatever you do just remember not to leave that reference.
You are adding MyPage after replacing the Panel causing MyPage to re-render.
There is a good example on how to replace panels here.
Yes you can call panels via reflection. I don't clearly know what you are trying to do with event here but if you want you can attach your panel with AjaxSelfUpdatingTimerBehavior and define the duration which will update this component in the given time period.
Hope its useful.

Keeping a rich:modalPanel open on validation fail?

I'm trying to keep my modal from closing when validation, done with an actionLister, fails.
I've seen numerous discussions on this issue with several purposed solutions but have had no luck with any of them. Anyone have any working solutions?
I'm using RichFaces 3.3.3.Final.
Have you tried this?
oncomplete="if (#{!validation.failed}) Richfaces.hideModalPanel('accounts_popup1');"
I love StackOverflow because I always find the solution immediately after posting a question.
The first solution in http://community.jboss.org/wiki/ModalPanelValidation works for me.
Paraphrased, put an id on your h:messages element and then do this Javascript check to see if you can close the modal.
function modalClose() {
if (!document.getElementById('fullresolvedidofmessagepanel')) {
Richfaces.hideModalPanel('modalpanelid');
}
}
The strings here are stand ins.
Yup - in the oncomplete(..) function of your button verify whether the facesContext contains any errors. If not - hide(), otherwise do nothing.

is it possible to change page before ajax?

for example:
user submit a comment , I add the comment in the page by javascript , then do the ajax. if ajax post failed ,tell user that something wrong happend.
in this way , it can improve user experience . and the probability of ajax failed is not low. but I didn't seen which site is using this technology , so is this method possible?
Actually, I'd say that stackoverflow uses this technique :
Make sure you are using firebug, and have the console displayed on the bottom of your browser scree
Click on (for instance) the arrow to upvote
you will see the arrow immediatly becomes orange, to indicate you have upvoted)
but looking at firebug's console, you will see the Ajax request starts only after the arrow has changed color -- or, at least, it is not finised yet when the arrow has changed color.
Considering the probably of the Ajax request failing is pretty low, changing the arrow immediatly indicates the user his vote has been taken into account... Even if it's not true before a couple milliseconds ;-)
You can add the comment via Javascript but you've also pointed out exactly why you shouldn't: what if it fails? Do you then remove the content?
In my opinion, adding it to the page implies to the user that it has worked. I would leave the comment in a form field until the AJAX submit succeeds. If that fails you can tell the user and they can try to submit again or whatever.
Of course, there is no functional reason why you couldn't do this.
Yes there is nothing stopping you doing this.
You add the comment in an element you create in javascript post the data and get the response code back form the ajax post.
