Help! I'm new to Watir, and am trying to get my
company to use it, but am running into a problem. I'm
trying to run multiple, independent windows without
having them interfere with each other. I've tried a
few different things: 

-ie, ie1, ie2 etc... (no globals)

-Using winclicker to launch an existing HTML page and
then attaching to it.

-Looking at the concurrent_tests example.

The reason that I'm doing this is I need to fit this
in with what the build engineer is already doing. To
make him happy, I need to deliver a suite of tests
that can be run against different servers on the
network, and at least some of the time these tests are
going to be run simultaneously on a system that will
host the test. In some cases, two different test
suites would be running at the same time.

I don't think I can use the concurrent example because
these tests won't be run at exactly the same time and
I also need to pass the test suite a base url for the
server I'm testing against.

No matter what I've tried, the instances end up
interfering with each other and some of the tests fail
with errors. Is there some way to work around this?
I'm not the most technical person in the world but
this is a really cool automation tool and I'd like to
get it adopted here for UI testing. I'm not sure if
I'll be able to do that if I can't figure out how to
get past this. 

Please don't make me go back to HTML Unit. :-)

Thanks

John
