Question

In my application I have alert on pageload.
The alert comes when i visited a specific page of my application and it is on page load.

I tried by:

selenium.click("click on the button, which takes me to a new page");
if(selenium.isAlertPresent())
    selenium.getAlert();
selenium.waitForPageToLoad("30000");

But no luck. Can any one please help me how to handle alert in selenium RC on page load?

As far as i know Selenium does NOT support javascript alerts that are generated in a page’s onload() event handler. I had the same problem, and the only workaround for me was not to depend on alert in my tests. But maybe these articles will be any use for you:
