The way to get this value is as follows: 1) access the RDoc file for Watir (http://rdoc.info/gems/watir/1.7.0/ frames) 2) look up the "selectlist" element 3) scan the documentation for selectlist until you notice that there's a specific example given in this section http://rdoc.info/gems/watir/1.7.0/Watir/SelectList:option which shows how to get the value given the displayed text. 4) write code based on the example given. 5) if that fails, ask on the watir group, providing sample of the HTML (check, already did that), the code you tried, and the results you got including any error messages. The RDoc is your friend, many of the answers you seek are waiting there for you to find, if you but search. -- Before posting, please read http://watir.com/support. In short: search before you ask, be nice. watir-general@googlegroups.com http://groups.google.com/group/watir-general watir-general+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com
