Re: [Webtest] <clickElement> not executing onClick JS code of dynamically rendered tag Same problem your xpath is not clicking the element with the onclick event.  It is clicking the td element which has no js triggers.

Hi All

I have a similar issue with js trying to click on the results from the table. 

            <clickElement XPath ="//*[@class='cSearchResultsR1B1' and contains(text(),'Analog')]"
                description="Select results" />

<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%">
    <col style="cursor:hand; padding-left:2px">
    
            <tr onClick="parent.SaveForm('Y', '546', 'Analog')" 

onMouseOver="SetPSLookupRowBGColor(this)" onMouseOut="SetPSLookupRowBGColor(this)">
                <td class="cSearchResultsR1B1">Analog</td>
            </tr>        
</table>

clickElement passes but page does not change.

I have an HTML page that executes a search, returning the results (an HTML table) via an 'AJAX call' which renders the table in a <div> tag on the page.  The TR tags of the AJAXed table have a unique id and an onClick attribute.  When using the <clickElement> tag in my WebTest script, the onClick event is not executed. The <clickElement> step is successful, just the javascript for the onClick was not run.  Is this a limitation of the HTML/JavaScript engine that it won't execute events associated with dynamically rendered elements (elements that were not on the page originally)?
 Thanks
