may be i am new to the Watir.

The problem i am facing is as following.


. i need to automate a use case which is like a new window. i provide name
and password and click save to create a new user.

Now the Name and Password are text fields. I can get the ids using developer
tool bar. but the next time i reload the page and try to run the automation
script again, the text_field ids get changed to a new value and my test
script fails

so the first time i select the text field i get <INPUT id="c_179" >

Once the page is reloaded i get <INPUT id="c_2">


what i should do so that even if these IDs are changing i can find the same
element.

thanks,
hrishikesh bose
