Hey Jarmo,
This sounds like it is caused by ( http://jira.openqa.org/browse/WTR-486 ).
His HTML could essentially do something like this:
<html>
<table id=a_table>
<tr onclick="alert('row 1')"><td>row 1</td>
<tr onclick="alert('row 2')"><td>row 2</td>
<tr onclick="alert('row 3')"><td>row 3</td>
</table>
</html>
In which case using the released version of Watir 2.0.1 with code like this:
b.table(:id, 'a_table').rows[2].click
would fire the alert for the row 1 and not row 3.
And using:
b.table(:id, 'a_table').row(:index, 2).click
would correctly fire the alert for row 3 (as George has described in the
latest email).
