I have the same issue.
Anyone knows how to handle regular expression retrieved from a file? (so they 
are a string when used)

[Wtr-general] Link description from file

2007-06-07 Thread John
Hi,

I have stored the link descriptions in a file to limit the maintenance efforts. 
I read the description from the file, store it in a variable and then click the 
link. When I use the whole link description, everything works fine:

[code]
link = www.example.com/contact.php
ie.link(:url, link).click
[/code]

But when I use a regular expression, then it doesn't work, because I think it 
is stored as a string:

[code]
link = /contact/
ie.link(:url, link).click
[/code]

How can I use regular expressions this way? Is there some string to regular 
expression conversion possibility?

Regards,
John
