Hi,
I was trying to get the <th> from table as asked by Brad http://www.mail-archive.com/wtr-general@rubyforge.org/msg06677.html. I was using element_by_xpath and it didn't work and there was no reason why it should not work. After investigating I came across the function "create_rexml_document_object" in watir.rb, it was using "us-ascii" encoding. Standard says we should use UTF-8 and this article ( http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/xml/library/x-utf8/) also says the same. After changing the encoding to UTF-8 I could address all the <th> using xpath. This change should be checked-in in the main branch also, Bret can you give me access right to check-in? or someone else also can check-in the change. Brad you can find <th> using xpath something like this: th = ie.element_by_xpath("//th") puts th.innerText th = ie.elements_by_xpath("//th") for h in th do puts h.innerText end Thanks -- Prema Arya
