Hi Chuck,
Thank you for your response.
I gave you suggestion a try and it didn't workout.
I did the install of the gem install rautomation
this is my part of my code
require 'rautomation'
@browser.div(:class,'add-video').object.click
#this 'object' is the SWFUpload flash 'search' button that launches
the SFWUpload 'select file(s) to upload...' window
@window = RAutomation::Window.new :title => /Select file/
@window.text_field(:class,"video-upload file").set video_path
@window.button(:class,"swfupload").click
The error message
/Users/josephfleck/.rvm/rubies/ree-1.8.7-2010.02/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in
`gem_original_require': no such file to load -- rautomation

I am not sure were to go from here.
Thank you,
Joe
