I was originally working with chrome, but I changed over to IE b/c I needed the Image validation Tools(they're not in chrome).

I had already made most of my tests and they were working just fine BUT when I started running them in IE I found my tests that try to fire an anchor onClick didn't work and I tried again in chrome to make sure and they still work there. This is my method I made...

public void Room_Booking_CodedStep1()
{   
    String title = "title="+DateTime.Now.AddDays(1).ToString("MMMM") + " " + date.Day; // to alwasy be one day ahead EX "October 29"
    Element ele = Find.ByAttributes(title);
    var anchor = new HtmlAnchor(ele);
    anchor.InvokeEvent(ScriptEventType.OnClick);          
}

 the mark up i'm trying to call and i checked that they are the same in both browsers

<a title="October 29" style="color: black;" href="javascript:__doPostBack('ctl00$ctl00$cphBaseMasterBody$cphAuthenticatedRightColumn$QuickBook1$calView','5780')">29</a>

Hello,

Please try using .Click() instead, like this:
HtmlAnchor anchor = ActiveBrowser.Find.ByAttributes<HtmlAnchor>("title=" + DateTime.Now.AddDays(1).ToString("MMMM d")); // to always be one day ahead EX "October 29"
anchor.Click();

Notice I also optimized the code at the same time.

thanks a ton, I didn't know about "ActiveBrowser" and now my test are running so much better.

I'm using the test studio code viewer to do my coding, I was wounding if you would recommend using the Visual studio ?

Hi John,

I'm glad I could help! Personally I'm used to using the complex Visual Studio IDE and I do prefer using it when I'm dealing with code. It's intellisense is smarter than the one built into Test Studio IDE. For everything else I do use the Test Studio IDE.
