OK so I went and looked.. it's not javascript -=-=- snip-=-= class Radio < RadioCheckCommon def initialize *args
=-=-=-= snip =-=-=-= its the * in *args that's giving it a fit.. Now understand please that my ruby coding skills are in their infancy.. and I've not gotten into defining my own classes or subclassing or any of that.. so I've no idea (other than it looks something like a C++ pointer, but I know ruby doesn't have pointers) what in the world *args is doing at that point in the code.. Is this valid ruby code and I'm perhaps looking at a bug in ruby in steel? Is this something added really recently to ruby? RiS comes with ruby 186-25 (although I thought I updated this) ruby-v reports "1.8.6 (2007-09-24 patchlevel 111)" that should be the correct version for working with Watir 1.6.2 right?
