developing, talk to your developers and get them to put distinguishing
properties in place.

I also monitor the watir tag at stackoverflow.com. There have been very few
queries there, and if they are of slightly higher quality than the average
question here, I think that it is because of the barriers to entry there
(OpenID, website vs email, etc).
There is another site that I think

What exception are you seeing? What would you like to do when you encounter

Here is the link to a page about ruby exception handling that I refer to
when working in this area:
Manoj,
Have you looked at the show_active() on Watir::IE?
(http://wtr.rubyforge.org/rdoc/classes/Watir/IE.html#M000267)
It returns a string that you could easily parse.
Looking at the source
(http://wtr.rubyforge.org/rdoc/classes/Watir/IE.src/M000267.html), it looks
like it uses
I don't think your call to #collect is doing what you expect. For each text
field, puts is printing the details and returning nil. textF is then an
array of nils with the same length as the number of text_fields.
The documentation of the #collect command is available at:
The standard first answer to this question is how do you locate the element
on the screen when running the test manually?
Is it in a particular area? Does it always have the same text? Is it the
third one on the page?
Without that level of detail, we will have trouble giving you more than
There is a line of text that I want to extract. It is found in some HTML
that follows this pattern:

This has been reported many times and is being tracked in JIRA:
http://jira.openqa.org/browse/WTR-281
The JIRA report includes an unsupported monkey-patch you can use.
I would like to improve watir's frame handling, but I don't know when I will
find the time to work on it.

My first instinct is that you want to use .click_no_wait instead of .click
on the submit button. .click waits for the next screen to load which
doesn't happen until after the error window has been dealt with.

Can you give us an understanding of the larger problem you are trying to
solve?
Can you show us the code that you've tried, the results they have given, and
the reason why the results are not what you are looking for?

most watir elements do.

This way, when you do search_field.set, it will actually go and find the
