I have been trying to find out how to allow Watir to open a tab in a current browser (which is already opened) with it opening a new browser window... I am using Firefox as my browser...

Never mind. I passed the variable to attach successfully. str=:title or str=:url it works.

Why do you care if a page is opened in a tab or in a window? If the new page is opened after clicking a link, you could set firefox to open links in a new tab instead of new window (preferences tabs open new windows in a new tab instead).

[wtr-general] Minor changes to watir.com
I have just noticed this on watir.com: They support Internet Explorer on Windows, Firefox on Windows, Mac and Linux, Safari on Mac, Chrome on Windows and Flash testing with Firefox. I have changed it to: They support Internet Explorer on Windows, Firefox and Chrome on Windows, Mac and Linux and Safari on Mac. (Chrome is now supported with watir-webdriver on all platforms, and I could not find any mention of flashwatir on watir.com, so I have removed it from the home page.) Please let me know if I have messed it up.
