Hi, Please find attached a script to extract scrap information from orkut user. What I am seeing is that when I do click on submit button, the click call never returns. The tracing of the calls reveals that click function call is spinning because @ie.busy status never becoming false.
I think the problem is in the OLE interface of ie which goes havoc when dealing with orkut. I would appreciate any pointers about how can I go step further in debugging. I have a workaround now by using timeout but this is very naive solution. I would also appreciate if I can have some patch in watir code so that I need not have timeout around every click call. (The attached script has work around code commented.) If needed I can send out my analysis using tracing. Environment: Watir 1.5 Thanks and Regards, Manish
