[selenium-users] Cannot find a ID for a rich text box available in a new frame.

These usually work on iframes, the following may give you some useful
pointers (I've still not got around to finishing it though)

Hi All,

Attached the screen shot of my application which consists of a textbox.
Clicking on the Procedure textbox, A small frame opens up. It is like a
rich-textbox.



I couldn't find the element id for that rich textbox. It shows as
txtarearemarks. But cannot enter in that.



Attached the source code also.



Can you please help me in identifying it?



Thanks,



Regards,

Sairam Prasath.

Thanks, Mark!!. I am using IDE. How to identify with that.

Regards,
Sairam Prasath.

No idea, I don't know which rich text box you are using and I don't know
what the page HTML looks like



These things usually work by taking a <textarea> and overriding it with
Javascript. You normally find that the JavaScript takes the <textarea> ID
and appends something (e.g. _ifr) and then crates an iFrame with this ID.
It then normally builds the right text stuff inside this iframe.



The code I linked to below should give you some pointers and help you to
identify the relevant elements. If it is building the rich text handler in
an iframe you'll need to switch to the iFrame to interact with it.
