Sorry for confusing, The IE.each was fail , when the IE was called as internet explorer for window.path since window.path =~ /Internet Explorer/ is not treated the case sentive.
I changed it as (File.basename(window.fullname).downcase =~ /iexplore.exe/ instead of the former. I want to suggest that it be applied for watir api?and I am afraid that it have another bad effect that i have not evaluated? Both two methods were fail at same times, when you open the ( http://images.china-pub.com/ebook30001-35000/34807/ch12.pdf as an IE alive instance, which result in the IE.each can 't work at all. have some one run into the same issue?
