I think JArkelen points out something fairly valuable here. we're overloading the term 'logger' and that's causing confusion.. perhaps using more distinct nomenclature would be good? In my view there is both "Logging" used for debugging of scripts or how exactly the application is failing when s

Sorry for any confusion. Yes, my question is whether people would like to have logging of Watir driver actions embedded in Watir. Cheers, Alister On Nov 14, 2:40 am, Bret Pettichord <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I agree that it would be great if we had a way to log all of the watir > driver acti

I agree that it would be great if we had a way to log all of the watir driver actions. I've thought about doing this for years but have never really had the need for it, and it is non-trivial to implement (although the refactoring i've done shouldn't make this any harder to do). If Alister's q

when I put the original logger in to watir, I really only intended it to get overwritten by a plugged in logger, but this unfortunately caused a lot of confusion. Probably cos the way I implemented it wasnt the best. A common thing is for people to want to log that they are clicking a certain link

I think you've misunderstood some comments that I made. Someone pointed out that the WatirLogger was in Watir but not in FireWatir. In response, I suggest that instead of putting it in both, we remove it. Here is the code in question: class WatirLogger < Logger def initialize(filName, lo
