Hello all,

As a new user, I find myself using online posts to make progress and 
discoveries on things I ignore.
Based on various posts I found out about the existence of the "API 
Locators" such as .div(s) or .span(s)...etc

Even if I am still wondering about their usage after reading about this 
discussion : 
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/watir-general/G90898izxc4

*QUESTION:* I am still wondering why are the "API Locators" such as 
.div(s), .span(s), .element(), .table(s) not working for me knowing that I 
am using Watir 6.8.4? 


*EXAMPLE*:
*   _________   **HTML sample    __________________________________*
  /                                                                        
                                          /
 /   <table class="month1" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0">    /
/_________________________________________________________/

   __________    WATIR    ________________
  /                                                                      /
 /   fltr_dates = @b.tables(:class, "month1")    /
/___________________________________/


*ACTUAL RESULT*:

Whenever I try .table(s), .element() or .div  ...etc...I am getting this 
kind of error:
*      undefined method `tables' for 
#<Selenium::WebDriver::Chrome::Driver:0x442d0b**8> (NoMethodError)*

I am only able to use .find_element(s) to locate an element.

          /
 /   fltr_dates = @b.find_elements(:class, "month1")   /
/_________________________________________/


*What did I try*:
1) I searched online if anyone had encountered this issue, or to make sure 
that those API Locator where still in use on Watir 6.8.4. I found the 
discussion posted above that comforted me in the idea that these are still 
in use in version 6+ of Watir
2) I have verify and I am getting the same <NoMethodError> error no matter 
the browser I use (Chrome, Firefox or IE).

*Hypotheses*: I am wondering if this has anything to do with an 
incompatibility of gems mixed together?

Here is my full list of gems:
