Introduction
The ValidateSelectedObjProperty command provides a powerful and general way to validate selected features of a web page using the contents of the DOM as revealed by the eValid PageMap feature. See the worked example in Validating Selected Document Object Properties.

Validate Document Object Property Command
KEY	COMMAND SYNTAX: Name(...)	ORIGIN	EXPLANATION	COMMENTS
PAGEMAP	ValidateSelectedObjProperty wid idx [["id_name"] "id_value"] name value "frame_path" [1] ValidateSelectedObjProperty wid idx name value "frame_path" [2] ValidateSelectedObjProperty wid idx ["id_value"] name value "frame_path" [3] ValidateSelectedObjProperty wid idx [["id_name"] "id_value"] name value "frame_path"	Edit	Validates the specific content of the described DOM object in the indicated frame (as specified by the frame_path). Details of the available names are usually found using the eValid PageMap facility. If the object found at idx does not have the given name, or if name is correct and the value the name currently has is incorrect, or if name is not found, an ERROR results. If the object with ID equal to id_value exists and the name has the specified value, or if name is correct and the value the name currently has is incorrect, or if name is not found, an ERROR results. If the object with object id_name equal to id_value exists and the name has the specified value, or if name is correct and the value the name currently has is incorrect, or if name is not found, an ERROR results.	Validation of text items is case sensitive. The eValid Adaptive Playback is only available for this command only if the command has one or two of the additional parameters specified.

There are three variations of this command, which take into account three ways the command works, depending on how specific you wish the object validation to be.

• ValidateSelectedObjProperty wid idx name value "frame_path"

  This is the normal form of the command. On playback eValid tries to validate that the object found at idx in the page has the required name present and and that name has the required value.

  If that information is confirmed the test PASSes. Otherwise, an ERROR results.

  Please note that eValid Adaptive Playback feature is NOT available for this variant of this command because there is no information on how to accept an alternative object on the page.

• ValidateSelectedObjProperty wid idx "id_value" name value "frame_path"

  In this form of the command, eValid uses the ID tag of the object to guide adaptive playback if the required properties are not present in the original location.

  On playback eValid tries to validate that the object found at idx in the page has the required name present and that name has the required value. If that information is confirmed the test PASSes.

  If it does not, and the eValid Adaptive Playback feature is in effect, eValid searches for an object where ID=id_value at a nearby location on the page, varying the idx in its search for an object that matches. If an object found at a new idx in the page has the required name present, and that name has the required value, the test PASSes. Otherwise, an ERROR results.

• ValidateSelectedObjProperty wid idx "id_name" "id_value" name value "frame_path"

  In this form of the command, eValid uses the id_name feature of the object to guide adaptive playback if the required properties are not present in the original location.

  On playback eValid tries to validate that the object found at idx in the page has the required name present and that name has the required value. If that information is confirmed the test PASSes.

  If it does not, and the eValid Adaptive Playback feature is in effect, eValid searches for an object where there is an id_name=id_value at a nearby location on the page, varying the idx in its search for an object that matches. If an object found at a new idx in the page has the required name present, and that name has the required value, the test PASSes. Otherwise, an ERROR results.
