I think the code you are looking for is: if ie.frame(:name, "NameOfFrame").text.include? 'FIND THIS TEXT' puts " FIND THIS TEXT Found" else puts " FIND THIS TEXT Not Found" end When you are calling ie.frame(:name,"NameOfFrame"), it is returning a handle to the frame, but you aren't using that handle. You are going back to the browser level to look at text, so you are looking in the same place 6 times. If you wanted to use the handle you are getting you could use: name_of_frame = ie.frame(:name,"NameOfFrame") if name_of_frame.text.include? 'FIND THIS TEXT' puts " FIND THIS TEXT Found" else puts " FIND THIS TEXT Not Found" end __________ Information from ESET NOD32 Antivirus, version of virus signature database 3804 (20090127) __________ The message was checked by ESET NOD32 Antivirus. http://www.eset.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Watir General" group.
