[wtr-general] Re: Watir returns first element found. How to return all elements found?
I forgot to give an update. Here it is. Tiffany's method worked great. e.g.) ie.div(:class => 'something', :index => 1) I just made the index value a variable and incremented it for every loop iteration.

[wtr-general] Re: Watir returns first element found. How to return all elements found?
@George, Yes they are all divs. @Tiffany, Hi Tiffany, I am trying to get a list of all the objects that are similar. I'm dealing with nested divs in my case. E.g.) I'm after all div class="b" (I didn't expand div class a, b and c in this case. But they contain info.) I'll try both methods that you mentioned and will write back if I had any success. Thanks.

[wtr-general] Re: Watir returns first element found. How to return all elements found?
Hi Dennis! Are you trying to get a list of all of the objects that are similar, or are you trying to perform an action on a specific object that doesn't happen to be the first one? You can specify multiple attributes for an object like this: ie.div(:class => 'something', :index => 1) If you really want a list of all the div objects on your page you can do this: ie.show_divs Hope this helps! -Tiffany On Apr 3, 1:18 pm, "Dennis I." wrote: > Watir returns the first element found when there are multiple elements > with the same name.

Are they all divs? On Apr 3, 12:18 pm, "Dennis I." wrote: > Watir returns the first element found when there are multiple elements > with the same name.
