Moshen,
I believe that browser.close is still supported in Watir v1.9.2 or
later,
while browser.quit was deprecated awhile ago.
I think SafariWatir still has a quite method.

If I'm reading this correctly, your issue is that the line of code:
ie.form(:id,'commonLoginform').text_field(:name,

the value held in that variable. When you quoted $user it was

See if specifying the ASCII code for the Carriage Return will work.
The Carriage Return is ASCII character 10.
Here an example in irb:

So you code would be:

I believe Quality Center can launch external scripts via the command

If so, it can be used to launch a Ruby script, and thus launch a Ruby
