I am totally new to Watir World :) & facing a bsic problem: I am able to click a link by name 'In English' by using the below line of code:
@browser.link(:text,'In English').click However cannot click the same link using *:href* using below code: @browser.link(:href,'/lis/lisDeskTopAction.changeLanguage.do?method=changeLanguage&LANGUAGE=en&lis.request.page.uid=-234720088').click *HTML code is :* <a href="/lis/lisDeskTopAction.changeLanguage.do?method=changeLanguage&LANGUAGE=en&lis.request.page.uid=-234720088"> * * *Getting error:* >ruby new.rb c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/watir-1.5.1.1230/./watir.rb:2368:in `assert_exists': Unable to locate object, using href and /lis/lisDeskTopAction.changeLanguage.do?method=changeLanguage&LANGUAGE=en&lis.request.page.uid=-234720088 (Watir::Exception::UnknownObjectException) from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/watir-1.5.1.1230/./watir.rb:2597:in `enabled?' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/watir-1.5.1.1230/./watir.rb:2372:in `assert_enabled' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/watir-1.5.1.1230/./watir.rb:2542:in `click!' from c:/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/watir-1.5.1.1230/./watir.rb:2528:in `click' from new.rb:12 >Exit code: 1 Also I have noticed that the *uid *at the end of the HTML code changes every time I visit this page.
