I guess I am not techie enough to do this. I tried opening the link http://xserve.openqa.org:8085/browse/IDE-EDITOR-240/artifact/MULTI/Selenium-IDE/selenium-ide.xpi
in my browser, but nothing happened.

In the meantime, I can't run any of my tests since I rely heavily on variables. How
do I get this fix installed? Thanks!

The link should ask you to download a file, which you should be able to open in Firefox
to install the version of the IDE. Alternatively, visit http://xserve.openqa.org:8085/browse/IDE-EDITOR-240/artifact/MULTI/Selenium-IDE
and click the link.

If you're unable to install from the above location, please try the following: http://release.seleniumhq.org/selenium-ide/1.7.1/

Having the exact same problem.  1.7.1 did not fix the issue.

Please provide more details. I have successfully tested this with the steps mentioned
in this issue (storeTextPresent/echo)

Reported by dave.hunt on 2012-03-12 13:16:46

[lukeis]

Depends on how you store the variable.  Plain old store works fine for me, but storeTextPresent,
for example, doesn't

Also,storeEval does not work for me.

[lukeis]

Half of the time it is successful and half of the time I get the error.  I am using
storeTextPresent/echo

I'm testing a new fix and will update the 1.7.1 release candidate shortly.

Reported by dave.hunt on 2012-03-12 13:56:03

[lukeis]

Possible workaround--It would seem I can get it to work if I change to using storedVars["xxx"]
instead of ${xxx}; although echo storedVars["xxx"] doesn't do anything--no error, but
no echo either.

Thank you all for verifying the fix, and apologies for the inconvenience of this issue.
I'll be adding some tests to our automated suite to hopefully this issue from recurring.

After the release 1.7.1 I get the below exception on selenium IDE when using the fileUploader:file,
in order to upload a file. Since yesterday (1.7.0) all my scripts were successfully
running, now they all fail. Could you please examine it?
