I'd like to suggest a minor update to Watir::Element#flash

I have added three parameters to remove the hard coded values only.  I gave 
them defaults so if not provided the function is backwards compatible.

But this allows the external caller to choose what color they want to flash 
the element , how many time, and how fast.

    #
    # Flashes (change background color to a new color and back a few times) 
element.
    #
    # @examples
    #   browser.text_field(name: "new_user_first_name").flash
    #   browser.text_field(name: 
"new_user_first_name").flash("green",3,0.05)
    #

    def flash(color="yellow",flashes=5,delay=0.1)
      background_color = style("backgroundColor")
      element_color = 
driver.execute_script("arguments[0].style.backgroundColor", @element)

      flashes.times do |n|
        nextcolor = (n % 2 == 0) ? color : background_color
        driver.execute_script("arguments[0].style.backgroundColor = 
'#{nextcolor}'", @element)
        sleep(delay)
      end

      driver.execute_script("arguments[0].style.backgroundColor = 
arguments[1]", @element, element_color)

      self
    end
