Ive worked on some applications where doing a view source from the browser 
didnt work. I think this was because the server was ziping the html 

( I think in apache its mod_deflate)

This was in the days before watir and it was a real pain to automate it.

If you use irb and the ie.html methods ( or ie.frame(...).html ) you should be 
able to get the html
