I'm starting to sound like a broken record and was just thinking about
updating the user guide for this. Use the ie developer toolbar to find
controls and identify them, while being familiar with the html source and
some basic knowledge around the dom is important, this will also help:

I just got started with this and am trying to write a simple script to get
my feet wet. I was following the googlesearch.rb case that is
provided. My question is how do you find the name of the object that you
want to perform an action with? For example:
ie.text_field(:name, "q").set("pickaxe") # q is the name of the search
field
How do you know that q is the name of the search field? I viewed the
source of the page and eventually found the field named q but it was not
obvious or easy. It was so murky that if I didnt know already that the
fields name was q I never would have found it. Is there a simple way to
identify a list box, text field, radio button...etc?
Thanks.
