I think what bret said is
$my_button = $ie.button(:id, 'foo')
is a bad idea. It may be better to do something like...
def my_button()
return( $ie.button(:id, 'foo') )
end
while
my_string = $ie.text
could be fine, though you could still do
def my_string()
return( $ie.text )
end
... i think

the watir expressions are now wrapped in methods but i cant see how
the object binding could be different from using global vars. I hope
someone can enlighten me on this

Yes, there would also be a 'before' option, plus some others

Is this saying you want the link that comes after headline? Is there a before?

This would make sense to me (no question mark)
link = $ie.link(:class => 'addtocart', :after => headline)
"By convention, methods that answer questions (i.e. Array#empty?
i can't see much difference between :after? and :is_after?. i would

Consider this code:
headline = $ie.div(:text, 'Pragmatic Version Control')
link = $ie.link(:class => 'addtocart', :after? => headline)
Would you assume that link was after headline, or headline after link?
