WatiN File Upload

Question

I've hit a snag. I am trying to use WatiN to upload a file. I can load the upload box, but it quickly disappears. The last line of my code at the moment is:

ie.FileUpload(Find.ById("profile_file")).Click();

It loads the dialog to select a picture but disappears. Is it possible to set the path of the box automatically example, load "C:/Desktop/image.jpg"?

Also, is it possible to wait for the upload to complete before continuing?

Help is much appreciated.

Thanks.

Answer 1

While this won't answer your question directly, I suspect there is a DialogWatcher automatically canceling the dialog.

Answer 2

why do you need to select from the Dialog.. Try to just sent the Text:

ie.FileUpload(Find.ById("profile_file")).Text = "C:/Desktop/image.jpg";
