Getting undefined method `setTimeout' with selenium webdriver using with ruby

Question

Getting error as below :

C:\Ruby\Scripts>W9_File_delete_v1.rb
C:/Ruby193/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/selenium-webdriver-2.30.0/lib/selenium/webdr
iver/common/timeouts.rb:33:in `page_load=': undefined method `setTimeout' for #<
Selenium::WebDriver::Driver:0xa3263e4 browser=:firefox> (NoMethodError)
        from C:/Documents and Settings/rakshiar/My Documents/userdata/Ruby/Scrip
ts/W9_File_delete_v1.rb:19:in `<main>'

With the below code :

#--------------------------------------------------------------
#Creating here Firefox Browser agent to get into the
#file deletion process
#--------------------------------------------------------------
driver = Selenium::WebDriver.for :firefox
driver.get "https://demo.com/"

#driver.manage.timeouts.implicit_wait = 200 # seconds
pgload = Selenium::WebDriver::Timeouts.new(driver)
pgload.page_load=(300)

Can I have help on that.

You should not need to create the Selenium::WebDriver::Timeouts object directly. Instead, use the appropriate method from the driver object.

driver.manage.timeouts.page_load = 300

But what's the wrong with my above? Why that's statement didn't work? clarify please.

I do not know a lot about the selenium-webdriver internals, but my best guess is that you are initializing a Selenium::WebDriver::Timeouts object using a driver object. Based on the api docs, it expects a bridge object instead. It is usually best to use the public api rather than internal classes.

Humm! you are right.I have researched on it a lots. Good idea is to use,public methods. :) Thanks for your heads up.
