Frankly, I never use show_all_objects.

I used the IE Dev Toolbar to analyze the page. It is really the very best tool for this kind of thing. All Watir users should install it now!

Sorry about that authorization dialog....

Hi Bret;

I did a Show_All_Objects on a Sharepoint page and couldn't make heads or tails out of the results. It might be that looking at the generated HTML might be more productive. Main problem seems to be however that WSS fires a popup for user authentication, with all the fun that THAT implies.

But then, I tried a record and playback using Microsoft's own Visual Studio Team Test, and it couldn't deal with that authentication popup either <g>.

We use sharepoint at my company and i just looked at the structure of the html of the site.

It looks like it should be fairly scriptable with Watir. It's mostly organized as a bunch of nested tables. Many of the key elements are tagged with meaningful id's or classes. Some are tagged with long id's that appear to be GUID's.
