Thanks for the response Chris! Unfortunately I am not a programmer. I
understand the concept of multiple threads, but I do not know how to make
it happen in Ruby. I have tried numerous combinations of WATIR syntax, but
I am simply guessing. The Unit tests run in my environment, so I expected
one of the examples would work.
My inability to get over this Pop Up issue is forcing me to use another
functional testing tool, but my preference would be to use WATIR. WATIR
provides us with several advantages over the other functional testing tool.
WATIR provides us the ability to check in scripts into source control along
side the code under test. WATIR also allows us to quickly generate test
scripts that outline the steps to the developers for a specific defect and
the expected result. Our goal is to attach these WATIR scripts to the
actual defects.
I am not able to do these things with the other functional testing tool.
The other tool however handles Pop ups flawlessly.
I think WATIR is the way to go, so I plea once again for assistance.

Hi Carl...
I really, really feel your pain, and I am just not in a position
right now to take a crack at your question.
I can't give you divine guidance (and I don't live in Austin) but
here's a clue: threads. And fork()
One way or another, you have to handle popups in a different
process than the one that is controlling your IE.
If you don't have an answer by next week, I'll be back, but in
the meantime, think about forking and threads, and maybe ask one more
time.
-Chris
