Since text area is in a frame, you have to say it explicitly:
ie.frame(:id = zone_main_iframe).text_field(:class =
'slet_tx').set('nice')

Re: [wtr-general] Re: Object no longer attached to the DOM error on doing a exists call
I have found testing an app that has a crazy amount of JavaScript that changes the DOM, that these exceptions are raised quite frequently. I personally prefer the Watir 1.X behaviour, as it personally means tests are more reliable for me. But, I understand the performance hit. Are we talking much slower execution times?

Re: [wtr-general] Safari Watir / Webdriver - reasons for choosing watir or selenium...
I think the iOS driver for webdriver is *definitely* not ready for prime time. For example, you can't even do a .click!!! http://code.google.com/p/selenium/issues/detail?id=1250 That issue has been open, and not looked at, since 1 Feb. Judging from that, I don't see if the iOS webdriver is considered very important. -- Before posting, please read http://watir.com/support.

#send_keys accepts now only strings. It accepted accidentally array of
VK_ codes in some previous version of RAutomation. Use better
solutions to capture screenshots. win32screenshot gem can help you
there https://rubygems.org/gems/win32screenshot and

[wtr-general] Entering XML in textarea
watir version = 1.9.2 ruby version = 1.8.7 Hi, I need to read XML from a document and put it into a textarea.

If I change the .set(doc) to e.g. .set(test) then the word test is written OK into the field with no error. The error I see is: NoMethodError: undefined method `value' for UNDEFINED ... / :REXML::Document C:/Ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/watir-1.9.1/lib/watir/ input_elements.rb:382:in `method_missing' C:/Ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/watir-1.9.1/lib/watir/ input_elements.rb:382:in `set' C:/WATIR/CanoeETVScheduler/xml_test.rb:29:in `test01_NewAEP' Is what I am trying to do actually possible or do I need to investigate other options (the only similar post I found seemed to suggest using cut'n'paste from an editor) Thanks -- Before posting, please read http://watir.com/support.

I don't think locating elements is the major bottleneck in browser tests in general, but it certainly can be in some cases. This is especially true with WebDriver, where every call to the API is also an RPC. We won't know until we try, I guess - I can create a branch where we can experiment. The problem is finding good benchmarks. The easiest choice would be to just run watirspec, but it almost never re-uses Element objects, so the performance hit will likely be lower than in a real world test suite. It's also rare for the specs to do nested finds (e.g. browser.div.text_field), which would also be affected negatively. Jari -- Before posting, please read http://watir.com/support.
