Hello,

I am new to Ruby and Watir and as my first assignment, I am trying to
fix the ruby script which automated the opening and browsing messages
in the Excite Mail. After Excite changed interface, the script has
been failing.

I used IE toolbar to see the underlying elements in the page and it
seems that it is lots of nested divs before you find an actual #text
which provides the visible text for the link.

I am not sure how to access the divs deep down to find the text value
I want and than click it.

The structure of HTML for "Logout" link looks like this.

<DIV class=ApplicationHeader id=ApplicationHeader>
  <DIV class=NavigationBar>
    <DIV class=NavigationBar_Padding>...</DIV>
    <DIV class=NavigationBar_logo>...</DIV>
    <DIV class=NavigationBar_buttons>...</DIV>
    <DIV class=NavigationBar_extra>
      <DIV class=NavigationBar_Search>
      <DIV class=NavigationBar_Links>
        <DIV class=NavigationLink>...</DIV>
        <DIV class=NavigationLink>...</DIV>
        <DIV class=NavigationLink>...</DIV>
        <DIV class=NavigationLink>
          <DIV class=NavigationLink_Icon>...</DIV>
          <DIV class=NavigationLink_text>
             #text

I tried following but it didn't work.

         if ($ie.div(:id, "ApplicationHeader").div(:index,
1).div(:index,4).div(:index,2).div(:index,4).div(:text,/
Logout/).exists?)
            thr = Thread.new{$ie.div(:id,
"ApplicationHeader").div(:index,1).div(:index,4).div(:index,
2).div(:index,4).div(:text,/Logout/).click}
            if (thr.join(MaxPageLoadWait).nil?)
              thr.exit
            end
            debug "Clicked logout link"
          end

I am able to find the div ApplicationHeader using following

$ie.div(:id, "ApplicationHeader")


Any help would be highly appreciated.

Thanks,
Nisha
