How to work with iframes
One does not simply input text into an
iframe
. 👌
The following robot navigates to the Stripe Payments Demo page and enters data into two form fields. What's interesting about the form is that one of the fields (Card
) is inside an iframe
element. The other field (Name
) is on the page outside the iframe
:
*** Settings ***
Documentation Working with forms inside and outside of an iframe.
Library RPA.Browser
*** Tasks ***
Input text in form field inside an iframe, then outside the iframe
Open Available Browser https://stripe-payments-demo.appspot.com/
Wait Until Element Is Visible __privateStripeFrame5
Select Frame __privateStripeFrame5
Input Text When Element Is Visible name:cardnumber 4242424242424242
Unselect Frame
Input Text name Robot
The Select Frame
keyword (from the RPA.Browser
library) selects the iframe
using its name
as the locator. After entering the value into the field inside the iframe
, the Unselect Frame
keyword is used to move the focus back to the main window. After that, it is possible to input text into the fields outside the iframe
.
There you have it: Moving in and out of an iframe
!
