Ok, Paul, let me see if I have this right because what I'm trying to
do is not working. I need to add the style method you displayed above
to the Element class in the MozillaBaseElement.rb file. then I call
"puts $Browser.text_field(:id,/PART/).style("left")" and that should
return the left of that text_field.
This is not working for me at all. I get an error message of
"SyntaxError: syntax error". I added the method right after the
initialize method. I know you said that I may have to make
modifications but i'm not even getting close right now
