The second link in that thread mentioned the parent object.   W3schools is 
a great place to learn how html works.

Example: 
puts ' Is select enabled? '
puts b.select_list(:id,'PolicyTypeANDL').attribute_value("disabled").to_s

I think there used to be  an .enabled?  method at one time, don't know if 
its still there.  
You can seek the guidance from http://watir.github.io/
