Does WatIN supports it ?

Watin Firefox SetAttributeValue

I'm trying to change images on a website using Watin (FireFox 3.6).
The code worked fine using IE, but after installing Windows 8.1, Watin doesn't work at all on IE 11, so I switched to FireFox.
The following code causes a FireFoxException/jssh error: invalid label
img.SetAttributeValue("src", "http://picload.org/image/X/X.png");
The image exists, and it's Src attribute contains a valid URL.
Is there anything wrong with my code?
Thank you in advance. I'm switching to more reliable methods like curl, so there is no need to advice me to use Watin alternatives.

Webpages with ActiveX-Controls in Firefox [duplicate]

I have an application which uses ActiveX controls. I want to automate this using Selenium IDE. But when i launch the application i end up in an error message "Turn on you ActiveX control". Is there any way to enable ActiveX in FireFox?
Note: I am using User Agent Switcher(as IE7) Addon of firefox to run my application.
No. Firefox doesn't support ActiveX.
"ff-activex-host" worked for me. It uses different tag, but otherwise seems to work on both firefox and chrome.
You can look around the MediaWrap extension for firefox. It is supposed to add transparent ActiveX support to Firefox.
I am not sure it already works with firefox 3.6 though and there are known limitations.
Maybe you can give it a try.

Try this: MeadCo's Neptune.
Or this: IE Tab.

Testing both in IE 8 and IE 9?

I need to test the styling of my web in both IE8 and IE9.
If I install IE9 then it will upgrade into IE8, So is there any way to install both IE8 and IE9 ?
Use a Virtual PC for testing on older IE.
Microsoft built a set of VHDs with different variations of OS/IE which do not requires activation. But these images will expires after a few months and you will need to download a new set.

Try IETester is a great tool for web developers. You can check Browser Compatibility for Internet Explorer Versions from 5.5 to 10
Thanks for your help, Right now I got a way to test in IE 7, 8 and 9. after installing IE 9, When we press F12 for developer tool, there's a option for Document mode. There you can have all IE 7, 8 and 9 to test your website.

Direct Access to Web Element in Firefox (like .Object if IE) in HP QTP

is there any way to get access to DOM object when running script in QTP in Firefox?
When running in IE, I could use
Browser().Page().WebButton.Object
How could I do something similar in Firefox?
Starting with QTP 11 there is .Object support with Firefox too.
If you're using an older version you will have to resort to running some JavaScript on the page which is exposed as Frame.RunScript starting in QTP 11 (oh the irony).

Developer tools, browser mode - setting IE7 and IE8 simulateneously for different windows

Is it possible to have two windows of IE8, one in IE8 browser mode and another one in IE7? When I work with IE, I don't want all my windows to be affected when I change the mode to test a specific page in IE7.
You can use IETester.
IETester is a free WebBrowser that allows you to have the rendering and javascript engines of IE8, IE7 IE 6 and IE5.5 on Windows 7, Vista and XP, as well as the installed IE in the same process.
I didn't try it but you should be able to do it with maxthon (using the split view) and a plugin.
