How to detect Javascript toast notifications in WatiN?
I have what I think is a fairly common scenario that I am trying to work with.
I have a site that accepts input via two different text boxes. If the input is incorrect or invalid, I get a Javascript toast notification.
I won't always get one, but I must in case (as I said before) distort the data or when a search result cannot be found.
How can I detect this in WatiN?
A quick google search returned results showing how they can be clicked, but I'm curious if I can detect when I get it?
In case anyone is wondering, I am using WatiN to take some screenshots for me, not to test the integration :)
Thanks in advance!

Here's what I came up with.
I read this question several times before coming up with an obvious solution.
Is it possible to read a JavaScript alert box using WatiN?
This is the code I came up with. Although it does delay 3 seconds, if no warning occurs, it works fine for my scenario.
Hope someone else finds this helpful.
frame.Button(Find.ByName("go")).ClickNoWait();
System.Diagnostics.Stopwatch stopwatch = new System.Diagnostics.Stopwatch();
stopwatch.Start();
while (stopwatch.Elapsed.TotalMilliseconds < 3000d)
{
if (alertDialogHandler.Exists())
{
// Do whatever I want to do when there is an alert box.
alertDialogHandler.OKButton.Click();
break;
}
}
