I think it is more like a problem with 'attach'.
There is known issue with attaching to Firefox.

Subject: [wtr-general] Weirdness when working with multiple Firefox windows -
using Watir::Browser
Hi folks.
Running ruby 1.8.6
Win XP SP3
Version of Watir from github from (5/20/2009) – reports as 1.6.2, but its not
the released version.
It appears that my browser windows are getting their wires crossed somehow.
I’m attaching code that should show the problem.
What I see:
Browser A goes to a page and clicks on a link to open a print friendly view
of the page.
Browser C should attach to the new window.
Somehow Browser A now thinks that it’s the same thing as Browser C?
What I expected:
Browser A and Browser C remain separate.
Code to use in IRB
#watir_browser is set to FF - using v 3.0.0.10 on my local machine.
require 'Watir'
a=Watir::Browser.new
a.goto("http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/baseball/mlb/05/21/peavy.trade/index.html";)
a.image(:alt,"PRINT").click
# wait_until(30) { c=Watir::Browser.attach(:url,/printthis/) } # this line is
not working yet.
sleep 10 # attach will throw exception if the window does not appear in time.
c=Watir::Browser.attach(:url,/printthis/) # if the window does not appear in
time.
a.url # returns the URL from c!
I’m thinking that I should probably log this in JIRA, but I figured that I’d
open the discussion 1st.
Thanks
-Alan
