You need / at the beginning and end (in place of ") of the entire
expression to indicate that you are using a regex. Ruby see's PWGa.... and
presumes that is some kind of a constant or class name, then gets confused
by the / in the middle of the name. You need the / at the front, so it
see's that entire thing as a regular expression.
Try
$ie.iframe(:id =>/PWGadget\dIfr/).table(:id =>
"ViewTable").cell(:text=>"VMO").fire_event("ondblclick")
