The only time that 'nesting' really matters is 1) items inside a frame, which must always be addressed starting at the frame level (but you do not need to specify the 'path' to the item unless that's the only way to identify it)
2) The item you want lacks a means to uniquely identify it (e.g. no name, id, class, unique text, etc) As long as there is some way (via a single value such as ID, or a combination such as Class and Name) to uniquely identify an object, you don't need to worry about how deeply it is nested. If the element you want does not have any unique characteristics, then it's time to start looking at the containers that the item is 'wrapped' by, and see if one of them can be incorporated to create a 'key' of sorts that will let you address the object.. To get more specific, and give you good advice, you REALLY need to post some sample HTML that shows the section of the page around the element you are trying to address, (along with telling us WHICH element you are trying to address) and then people can give you specific examples of Watir code that could be used to work with that element On Mar 31, 8:35 am, a b <cristina.watir.toro...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > please tell me the email address where I can send an attached file. > > Thanks, > Cristina -- Before posting, please read http://watir.com/support.
