Hello Tanu, I took a course called "Problem Solving and Programming Concepts" at my local college about four years ago.  We focussed on understanding the way object-oriented programs are put together and used 'pseudo code' to write pretend code that would perform certain functions to solve certain problems.

Using Watir is remarkably simple and easy to read and very similar to the pseudo code that I learned in that course!  I'm afraid that I don't know any other references or resources to help someone get started in scripting.  I'm still learning how to do it myself.  I'm finding that as I learn to use Watir and Ruby, each week my scripts become more powerful and flexible than the week before.  The scripts I'm writing this week are way more advanced than when I started about a month ago.  (In fact, I will have to re-write or refactor all that code at some point in the near future.)

Essentially, you become a better programmer and are able to write more powerful scripts with time and practice.  I don't believe that this mailing list is the appropriate forum for teaching someone to program.  If you encounter a specific problem with one of your Watir scripts, check the online documentation, search the message archives, and ask any programmers or developers that you work with at your office for help.  If you still cannot find the answer to your problem, then feel free to follow the posting guidelines (see the message thread titled "Bad Bug Reports") to ask for help here.

I learned a ton of stuff from one of the programmers at my office in just five minutes by asking him to take a look at Ruby and Watir.  He called up the SciTE editor, hit [F8] and [F5] and ran the script to see what the output was.  That was amazing!  I didn't know it could do that!  That one tidbit alone saved me a ton of work switching back and forth between command prompt windows.

I hope some of this helps.  Best wishes.
