The poor support of the firewatir 1.6.5 to Chinese characters
I cannot figure out how to enter the Chinese characters into the textfield of a webpage by firewatir 1.6.5, I tried to change the encoding of the .rb file and the encoding of the firefox browser, but failed.
require ‘rubygems’
require ‘firewatir’
ff = FireWatir::Firefox.new
ff.goto “http://www.google.com“
sleep 1
ff.text_field(:name, ‘q’).set(‘?’)
For Watir 1.6.5, the Chinese charaters can be supported by replacing the script WIN32OLE.codepage = WIN32OLE::CP_UTF8 with WIN32OLE.codepage = WIN32OLE::CP_ACP in the file of C:\Ruby\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\gems\watir-1.6.5\lib\watir\win32ole.rb
