ed my impression that you were referring to the "exists?"
method.
If that is not what you were proposing, then there was definitely a
misunderstanding.

know how to code it).
Hope you're enjoying yourself. Life is good here.

I think it's a good idea. I used to use WinRunner TSL (I much prefer
using Watir by the way!) and it provided similar functionality. What
was different was that there was a global timeout setting that was
used, and the timeout value added to the operation would be added on
to the global timeout

Sure.
In WinRunner, there is a global timeout setting that is used for all
scripts. This was set via a menu option rather that programmatically.
In addition to this, in WinRunner TSL, most operations would take a
timeout value as a parameters e.g.
link_click(name, timeout)

I do not understand the problem. Why not just alter the _javascript_ to
reduce or eliminate the delay? You can make it do anything you want it

a number of people are having to do this already.
