One other way is to use the element method 'attribute_value'
so assuming your first level child divs have some attribute,
div id=1
div xyz='abc'/
div xyz='def'
div/
div/
/div
div/
/div
this code will work
ie.div(:id, 1).divs do |child|
if child.attribute_value('xyz') =~
I faced the same problem too. I had to create a function to solve this
problem
Basically recurse creates a hash of all the divs from the root div.
I had something similar to:
div
div
div
div
div
div
div
div
div
div
div
I never needed to solve this problem but if I may nudge you towards this:
1. get the base div.html
2. and pump it to Hpricot for processing
and maybe use 'children_of_type div call to get to divs you need.
a wild suggestion since purely theoretical.

this might be simpler:
top_div = ie.div(:id , 'toplevel')
top_div.divs.each do | a_child |
next unless a_child.document.parentElement.invoke( id) == top_div.id
puts an immediate child is + a_child.id
end
untested, but it seems sound, as long as you have useful identifiers of some
