Ah, so after you browse to the main test page, a new window is opened that
contains the content you need to access?

In that case you are entering the world of popups and attaching. :)  See
more info here:

http://wiki.openqa.org/display/WTR/Pop+Ups

In short, you can use Watir::Browser.attach (or Watir::IE.attach if you are
only using IE) to attach to the new window and interact with it.

Thanks
Bill
