Hi Justin/Titus I have read the watit 6.0 release notes and FAQ @ http://watir.com/watir-6-faq/#H Thanks a lot for giving the valuable info.
Until now I was under the impression that "element.when_present" & "element.wait_until(&:present)", but reading the notes I understood that they are different. Arent both waiting for deafult of "30" seconds for the element to be present? What is the difference between the two?
