Many thanks for your reply ankur. The https page does not launch as a pop-up window but as a normal window only. It gets recognized as browser when I use the object spy. And I did tried all ways to include the visible property as I mentioned in my previous post. I was really wondering what cud be wrong. But one thing is that, I was browsing in qtp forum abt this and one user had said that in case of https it is better to use name and innertext property while performing DP, but quite unfortunate, the appln in which i'm wrkng doesn't have the innertext property but shows the name property. May be even this can be an issue, still I wud be glad to get the exact reason for that.
thanks again
