You can captrue alert which is triggered by some event,bu you can't get it when triggered by "Execute Javascript"

the RF scripts is as follow:

*** Settings ***
Library Selenium2Library

*** Test Cases ***
alerttest
open browser http://localhost:7272 ie
click button button
Alert Should Be Present Hello!

AlertTriggeredbyJavascript
sleep 1s
execute javascript window.f()

10:21:55.046 FAIL There were no alerts

IS there any difference between the tow way?

Here is the HTML under testing :
[input type="submit" name="button" id="button" value="提交" onclick="f()" /]
[script type="text/javascript"]
function f()
{
alert("Hello!")
}
</script>
[/html]

The problem of dismissing an alert box in Selenium2 appears to be a problem across the board. See:

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9195753/how-to-quit-modal-dialog-window-in-selenium-headless-browser

I test with chromedriver on Win7 and I'm getting the error below because an alert box pops up and is not being dismissed:

[ WARN ] Keyword 'Capture Page Screenshot' could not be run on failure: WebDriverException:
Message: u'An open modal dialog blocked the operation'
| FAIL |

There were no alerts
