if double quotes comes in outer html - sujaravi123 - 04-04-2012

Hi

I want to identify my object using it's outer html property as given below

Browser("Title:=Arbitron Cross-Platform Campaign Analyzer").Page("Title:=Arbitron Cross-Platform Campaign Analyzer").Webelement("html tag:=TD","outerhtml:=<TD style="FONT-STYLE: normal; FONT-FAMILY: Arial Unicode MS, Arial, sans-serif; WHITE-SPACE: nowrap; COLOR: black; FONT-SIZE: 12px; VERTICAL-ALIGN: middle; FONT-WEIGHT: normal" align=left.*")

But you can see there is a double quotes inside outer html before the "FONT-STYLE".Also the word "normal" inside the outer html is a keyword for QTP.So these creating problems in identifying the object

Please help me in resolving these?

escape char for double quotes is adding 2 more double quotes to it.
Try it...

Print """hi"""
it will print "hi"

Hi,

QTP even wont recognize few of the special charectors , u need to handle them also like a double quote. use '.'(dot) for sinle charector. here is the below expression that might work , also its better to recognize the object with 'class' , html id' rather than 'outer html'....try to use other properties as well.

Code:
Browser("abc").Page("xyz") .WebElement("html tag:=SPAN","outerhtml:=.SPAN style.""COLOR. .1274c0. FONT.SIZE. 12px. FONT.WEIGHT. bold""...91..22.61638369..SPAN.").Click

Thanks,
Harish
