If it cant find it, it raises an ObjectNotFoundException.
If there are multiple, it returns the first one. There have been
suggestions we should raise an exception if there are multiple. Im not
sure, as there is nothing preventing you from having the same name or id
on html tags in the page.

Wow, thanks for the quick response ...

So, with the .link or .frame or .blah calls, what do they return if it
can't find the item ?  or if it finds multiple?
