    <p>I am working on testing-automation for a website I'm working on. I am using windows powershell to create scripts to do this. My problem is I need to click a link that opens up another window, I need a reference to that window some how. </p> <pre><code>$ie = new-object -com "InternetExplorer.Application" $ie.navigate("http://localhost:4611") $ie.visible = $true $doc = $ie.document $link = $doc.getElementByID('link') </code></pre> <p>That is where I get a reference to the browser and the link. Then I click the link:</p> <pre><code>$link.click() </code></pre> <p>Which opens up a new window with things I need to test on it. How would I get a reference to this new window? It is not technically a child window of the first one. </p> <p>I have tried to set the click of the link to a reference like this but it doesn't work:</p> <pre><code>$test = new-object -com "InternetExplorer.Application" $test = $link.click() </code></pre> <p><strong>UPDATE:</strong> Here is the JavaScript function openwindow that gets called to open the window</p> <pre><code>function openwindow(url, name) { if (typeof openwindow.winrefs == 'undefined') { openwindow.winrefs = {}; } if (typeof openwindow.winrefs[name] == 'undefined' || openwindow.winrefs[name].closed) { openwindow.winrefs[name] = window.open(url, name, 'scrollbars=yes,menubar=no,height=515,width=700,resizable=no,toolbar=no,status=no'); } else { openwindow.winrefs[name].focus(); }; }; </code></pre> <p>The function gets called in a line of code that looks like this</p> <pre><code>column.For(i =&gt; "&lt;a href='" + link + i.id + "?status=new' target='pat" + i.id + "'id'enc' onclick='openwindow(this.href,this.target);return false'&gt; </code></pre> <p><strong>FINAL UPDATE:</strong> I ended up doing this slightly differently. I created a new Internet Explorer object and grabbed the href from the link and set all of the options and navigated to the window using powershell like the javascript does.</p> <pre><code>$ie2 = new-object -com "InternetExplorer" $ie2.visible = $true $ie2.menubar = $false $ie2.height = 515 $ie2.width = 700 $ie2.resizable = $false $link = $doc.getelementbyid('link') $url = $link.href $ie2.navigate($url) </code></pre> <p>I'd like to thank @scunliffe so much for helping me through this problem. </p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
