password actually gets typed into the textfield and used for login.

Here is what Firebug caught to identify the textfield:


Any thoughts on how to make the code type the password into that
field? And yes, I wish to make it work on both IE8 & FF3.5 in Win7.
Thanks for any help on this.

Could also try .flash to ensure you are calling the right element from orb.
Css has given me some challenges in the past..  also try emwith (;index,
#).set

I have it working like this:

password = 'abc123'
b.text_field(:name, "mock_password").set password

If that doesn't work, you might want to just test to see if watir can even
see that element.

if b.text_field(:name, "mock_password").exists?
  puts "Password field exists"
else
  puts "Password field missing"
end
