But why cannot you get click_no_wait working? I've made a little blog post about debugging the problems with click_no_wait.

I have the following html td id=zippyOne/td td id=zippyTwo/td td id=zippyThree/td .//*...@id='zippy']/@class is what xPath gives me for every one of those. How do I refer to the third one?

Re: [wtr-general] canxth element
Željko's solution is probably your best option. :) You can also access any of those three cells using XPath - here is a way that should work in IE and Firefox: browser.cell(:xpath, //td[.='Three']) The dot being compared to 'Three' represents the text of the cell. And if the cell text has leading or trailing whitespace, you can strip it from the text before doing the comparison: browser.cell(:xpath, //td[normalize-space(.)='Three']) Thanks Bill On Thu, May 6, 2010 at 8:08 AM, Željko Filipin zeljko.fili...@wa-research.ch wrote: On Thu, May 6, 2010 at 4:58 PM, tjp kris...@gmail.com wrote: td id=zippyOne/td td id=zippyTwo/td td id=zippyThree/td How do I refer to the third one?

[wtr-general] Watir is unable to open nested modal windows using click_no_wait
I am having difficulty using click_no_wait to open a second modal window that is a child of the first modal window. click_no_wait does not open the modal window, click works to open the second modal window but then when the window is open, I am unable to interact with it.

[wtr-general] Re: Watir xpath navigation problem
Unsure if this is related, but a bug in the current version of Watir, 1.6.5, prevents some xpaths from being properly parsed. You can fix this by changing line 910 of ie-class.rb (C:\Ruby\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\gems \watir-1.6.5\lib\watir\ie-class.rb): Before: doc.search(xpath).each do |element| After: doc.xpath(xpath).each do |element| This will explicitly use xpath selectors, but it will also disable css selector support.

I have no way to change anything on it. To use the index attribute on HTML source. And access it using the :index. But I've tried this anyway, using the :index hoping it will bind the tabindex. But, it was just a hope, it doesn't work (same error).
