Ive been working on some things that ( at least to my mind) simplify how the 
code represents an html page. It also has several other advantages. I'll 
probably publish it in a seperate library ( or via the contrib dir )

as for your code, the firsat think i would do is get rid of the global ie. even 
replacing it with a method is better

$ie = Watir::IE.new

def my_browser
    $ie
end

my_browser.goto('http://someurl')


at least this way its a bit easier to switch to firefox, or do something 
different with the browser.
