I got it fixed ;). Thanks guys, much simpler than I thought. fr = browser.frame( :id, "Main_Body" ) fr.checkbox( :id, "cblModules_0" ).clear
So this problem is only with "frame"? Is there any other element that we have to do this kind of "nested call" ? What's the easiest way to access an element? What's the most usable way to access an element? I asked this because when I use Selenium, I often use "xpath", but "xpath" seems very brittle, any changes to the element can break the test code. I would appreciate any feedback or recommendation.
