While running a selenium script in IE9 with browser compatibility set to IE7, I always observe in some screen the menu bar getting hidden & the script execution failing. How can I solve this problem? I'm thinking it means that the page is not properly loaded.
The website I'm testing only supports IE7 ,but I'm using IE9 with compatibility mode.
Can any one kindly guide me as to how to resolve this issue & why this issue is coming up frequently?
Change your browser to support IE7 compatibility mode:

1.Clear IE 11 Browsing history, cookies etc.
2.Close the browser
3.Open the browser
4.Navigate to https://www.parcelforce.com
Expected: The parcelforce.com home page should load properly and quickly in IE11
Actual:
Page does not load properly. Also, on refresh the page takes a lot of time to load. Sometimes it may not load.
This issue is happening with IE11 only. Whenever I hit https://www.parcelforce.com in other browsers say chrome, Firefox, safari, website is loading quickly.
Can anyone suggest me what might be the issue with IE11. Should I need to add any code for IE11 to load website quickly?
Based on your description, I reproduced the problem you described. And I found some other things, when using the address bar and enter key (two or more times) navigation can make the page complete loading. But using ctrl+R or F5 to refresh cannot achieve the same effect. I checked the console in ie11 and did not find any error messages (except warning messages), so I am not sure if it is a compatibility-related issue or other issues in the code.
On the other hand, the Internet Explorer 11 desktop application will be retired and go out of support on June 15, 2022, I recommand that you could use some morden browsers, such as Chromium Edge.

I have been executing automation scripts for last 6 months without any issues. Suddenly chrome browser shows captcha screen and shows message that please confirm are you human ?.
Below that it states 2 points 1.JavaScript might be disabled 2. your cookies are not supported .I enabled both of the Java script and cookies but no luck.
I tried to execute older version of chrome browser also but I am getting same captcha screen in the older version of browser too.
The good thing is that I am not getting captcha screen in Firefox and edge browser. I am getting it only in the chrome browser.
May I know if chrome has introduced any functionality like if we execute automation scripts and it shows captcha screen because why I am getting this doubt that firefox and edge is not showing captcha screen.
I'm working on a monitoring tool for my website to log data. The actual logging is made on server. My goal is to calculate stats based on how long the user stays on the website.
Main question: I used chrome headless command --remote-debugging-port=80. I got logs for up to 10 minutes. Works perfectly. But how long will it work if left working? Is there a default timeout? If yes, how can I change it? If I want to run it exactly 30 minutes after page finished loading?
I'm trying to do the same on firefox (tried using PhantomJS but it wasn't loading the page correctly even though useragent was set to firefox) but firefox just throws an bank page when I'm trying to start a headless mode. I used "firefox -headless" and tried capturing an screenshot. It was just exiting my currently open firefox tabs without capturing any image. Any idea?
Using firefox quantum 59.0. I don't want to use selenium.
Also PhantomJS solution would be great. Currently I just want to collect logs. So, it only have to run all javascript (an jquery) code on the page which then sends the data using ajax. I tried page.onLoadFinished and then a wait function to make it stay on the page for the exact time after page loading.
Since no one answered, I will try to answer my own question after even more research and logical thinking.
Main question: Seems that there is no timeout but if need can be used --timeout X. Even though it's not perfect because it runs independently if the page if fully loaded or not.
As for the firefox, it's buggy. -new-instance (make headless run while you are already on firefox) is not working and -no-remote didn't help. Firefox is only working if running only one instance. So, if it's the PC you are working on and you want to run tests too, firefox is not for you. Headless runs only when no other instances of firefox are running, while chrome runs fine.
PhantomJS didn't work even though tried multiple solutions.
Best solution? Use chrome. Need portable? Use chromium and use headless. Or write your soft to use cefsharp which is based on chromium. Your browser with all libs will be around 120-200MB. Pretty big for portable but do it's work. Same as portable chrome or chromium. CefSharp have a privilege of integrating whatever you like into the browser since it's a... browser.
I am using Firefox 55.0.2 (64-bit) with selenium. The code works fine, however I see an icon in Firefox saying Browser is under remote control and the URL is highlighted in orange as shown in below screen shot.
Is there a way to disable this message in Firefox?
You wouldn't get that in the previous versions of firefox (version 45 or below). Its just an update and cannot be disabled. Even google chrome shows a message(chrome is autmated by a software). or you could just use the previous versions of the browser.
Maybe not related directly to selenium use,
But in case of getting stuck in "under remote control" after having launched firefox with a kind of:
firefox -marionette -foreground -no-remote -profile /path/to/existing/profile
It's because this way it toggles marionette:true in about:config,
Thanks to Firefox Stuck in Remote Control Mode for pointing to this marionette config entry
I facing issue regarding fluctuation of Input fields in Siebel
Input fields fluctuate on scrolling.
I’ve done following troubleshooting.
Added in trusted site.
Added in compatibility view settings.
Tried in private browsing.
Graphics Driver installation.
EMIESiteListManager.msi
Windows 10 (IE 11) re-installed
If your version of Siebel is openui, most probably this is javascript issue. Open the browser console and see if there are javascript issues there, try to add the missing files to the server.
It could be due to different versions of browser objects, try clearing your browser cache & restart browser.
