Question

I have been working on a project and noticed the watin library freezing the application. Here is the code:

using(var browser = new IE(url))
{
     if(!string.IsNullOrEmpty(user) && !string.IsNullOrEmpty(password))
     {
          browser.Link(Find.ById("overridelink")).Click();
     }
}

The code above works fine if the ID “overidelink” attribute is found. If its not found the whole application freezes up. How can I prevent this?

Answer 1

First check if it’s exists and then excecute the click

if (Browser.Link(Find.ById("overridelink")).Exists)
{
    Browser.Link(Find.ById("overridelink")).Click();
}
