I am trying to get selenium tests to run. Yet every time I try to run a tests that should run IE I get a error on line 863 of htmlutils.js It says that I should disable my popup

Answer 1

I have had the same problem and have found another solution which works for me. Just use the *iexploreproxy setting in the browserString.

I used:

selenium = new DefaultSelenium("localhost", 4444, "*iexploreproxy C:/Program Files/Internet Explorer/iexplorer.exe", "http://www.bbc.co.uk/");

I hope that works for others too :)
