Thanks for the pointer!
I'm getting closer to finding that pesky string. Here's what I've written
after reading your links;
ie.frame("foo").tables.each do |t|
puts "since you don't have ID's, look at every table"
puts t
for i in 1..t.row_count
puts "for every row in this table"
puts i
t[i].each do |cell|
puts "for every column in this row, look at its contents"
puts cell
if ie.text.include? "Password:"
puts "if true, this is your cell"
puts cell.text
end
end
end
end
and then I end up with;
C:/Ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/watir-1.6.5/lib/watir/table.rb:294:in `each':
undefined method `length' for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError)

Line 20 is;
ie.frame("foo").tables.each do |t|
