Thanks Tiffany. I will try that out. Just that this is not our code. This
belongs to Fotolog. But anyways, will surely try out the options suggested and
revert with my observations.

Sorry, I should have included this in my original response....
I don't think your problem is related to your object being embedded in
a table, I think there's a protection on it that doesn't allow
automated tools to access it. You can verify this by just performing
a .exists? on your object to make sure that Watir can see that it's
there.
Also, if you're not using it already, command-line IRB is a great way
to troubleshoot working with objects.
