Yes, you are right Chunk,
My HTML code looks like this -
/html/body/div/div/div[4]/div/fieldset/table[3]/tbody/tr[9]/<td
class="normal">Change counter</td><td class="normal"><div
class="system">0</div></td></tr>
I have tried as suggested by you,
It gives me following error...
C:/Ruby186/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/firewatir-1.6.5/lib/firewatir/
jssh_socket.rb:12:in `const_get': wrong number of arguments (2 for 1)
