Thanks for the reply Bret. I also want to add my .02 that "visible" is a bit difficult to nail down. I find the .visible? method to be pretty good, but not always 100% dependable. For example, in one of the apps I test, an element is made not visible by using the zindex value of -999 to place certain elements behind others, thus making them not visible to the users, but "visible" in terms of the .visible? method. This is a legitimate way of doing things in HTML, but it would be very difficult to write .visible? to handle this case.
As for IE#text, it seems like using this to detect things on a page is a recipe for bad things to happen. I can't see myself being in favor of it.
