one of two things may be happening: 1) I wonder if you are using two cmd terminals. The problem with set command on windows is that the whatever you set lasts only for the duration of the process you are running in that one terminal window. So if you set watir_browser=firefox in terminal window 1 and run ruby script in terminal window 2 it will not know to run it on firefox. 2) or when you type set watir_browser=firefox you can' t have any spaces so the following is incorrect 'set watir_browser = firefox' marekj Also for the time being I am doing to just change the default browser > from the script itself (which works fine). > > Thank you > Margam > > > On Dec 11, 9:46 am, John Fitisoff <jfitis...@yahoo.com> wrote: > > I think the problem is that you are requiring watir rather than > watir/browser.
